I dont drink alcohol myself, but isnt there some kind of drink, like the kind they mix up at bars, not sure the term for those kinds, that is just orange juice mixed with vodka? I must imagine this is intended to be similar but premade.

The difference between Sunny D and orange juice is like the difference between Tik Tok and real life. One may be vaguely similar to the other, but they aren't are for sure not interchangeable.

to be perfectly honest, Ive not had sunny d since I was in like, kindergarten, so I dont really recall what its like much beyond that its orange flavored.

It used to be called Sunny Delight, and it was in a commercial someone Gen-Xified the script by having a kid exclaim “Sweet! Sunny D!” after rummaging through the other drinks.

God only knows what this stuff is. Probably some Soviet Union time travel scam from Dimension X.

As a (young) millennial, I feel like it was always called Sunny D, though the name was Sunny Delight. Is my memory wrong? I'm pretty sure it isn't a Gen-x thing at least. It's got to be millennials.

I’m the oldest millennial and the kid was older than me in the commercial

Ah, totally misread your comment. I habitually read Z instead of X.

Sunny D plus vodka is still good. Some friends in college mixed up a water cooler full of Sunny D, vodka, and blue curacao for a st patty's day thing. Was bright green, tasted great, and was quite strong.

I’ve always heard orange juice + vodka called a screwdriver.

And not gonna lie, I’d try it.

I've never made one with Sunny D, but a screwdriver is pretty tasty.

They are called Screwdrivers, yes
