How to make an Arctic Fish

You'll need

1 drink

Instructions

  1. 1

    Fill a pint glass with ice cubes.

  2. 2

    Pour in vodka, orange juice and candy.

  3. 3

    Top with grape soda.

  4. 4

    Give it one gentle stir.

Why build it in the glass? Nothing here needs shaking, and pouring straight in keeps the grape soda fizzy.
