Harvey Wallbanger

This drink with the interesting name was popular in the 1970s, when, unless you were hiding under a rock, you couldn't help but hear or see the name, even if you may not have remembered exactly what went into the drink. Its popularity waned, but it has lasted into the present (see Word History below for the verb, "to last"). One of its ingredients is Galliano, a liqueur invented in Livorno, Italy in the mid 1890s, which, according to their website, is made from a variety of herbs and spices, including cinnamon, anise, peppermint and vanilla, and it is 42.3% alcohol. The actual recipe for Galliano is a closely guarded secret. "Harvey Wallbangers" are commonly served in a variety of taller glasses. If doctors tell you not to drink, tell them this is a good way to get orange juice, and don't forget the orange slice!  

Ingredients:

1 1/2 ounces vodka
5 ounces orange juice
3/4 ounce Galliano
orange slice
ice

Add ice to a glass, add vodka and orange juice, stir to mix. Float the Galliano on top. Garnish with an orange slice.

WORD HISTORY:
Last-English has more than one word of this spelling, but this is the verb meaning, "to endure, to hold out, to continue on." It is distantly related to "learn" (an original English word from its Germanic roots) and it goes back to Indo European "leis/lais," which had the notion, "to track, to trail." This gave its Old Germanic offspring "laistijanan," ^ with the same meaning; thus also, "to follow." This gave Old English (Anglo-Saxon) "læstan," meaning, "to follow;" thus also, "to take on and do a task." Later, the idea of "following a path or course of action until a task was complete" provided the meaning of, "endure, hold out, bear, continue on," as the "do, perform" meaning began to fade from common usage. It then came to be spelled "lasten," before the modern version. The other Germanic languages have: German "leisten," meaning, "to do, to perform, to achieve (which carries the notion of "completing something;" thus, "enduring to the end"), to afford;" some Low German and Dutch have "leesten," meaning, "to fulfill, to carry out," (seemingly also, "to pay," but likely now archaic), some Frisian "laste/leste," "to fulfill," to pay (for fees)."  

^ I found no forms in the North Germanic branch of Germanic, only in both West and East Germanic branches.
