Fuzzy navel

A fuzzy navel is a mixed drink made from peach schnapps and orange juice. Generally an equal amount of each component is used to concoct it, although quantities may vary. It can also be made with lemonade[1] or a splash of vodka depending on the drinker's taste. The addition of another 1 or 1½ oz of vodka to the fuzzy navel creates a "hairy navel", the more "hair" referring to the increased strength of alcohol in the drink. A Hairy Navel or "Fuzzy Russian" recipe is as follows: 1 part vodka, 1 part peach schnapps, 4 parts orange juice.[2]

History

The fuzzy navel was one of the first drinks to arise in the new popularity of cocktails and mixed drinks in the 1980s. The drink was invented over 30 years ago by Ray Foley, a well-known bartender and founder of Bartender Magazine.[3] The story goes that Ray was cutting an orange for a garnish when a man nearby made the remark that he could still smell the fuzz of the peach schnapps through the orange juice. Ray looked at the orange and saw the printed word "Navel" for navel orange. Thus the cocktail was born.[3]

This fashion was described by New York Times critic William Grimes as "a kind of cult, rallying points for young drinkers in search of fun and not too picky about taste".[4]

Name

"Fuzzy" in the name refers to the peach, and "navel" to the orange.
