"After You, Marco Polo," by Jean Bowie Shor, 1955
"Slender girls and lithe young men filled the bar where we repaired each evening for a screwdriver — a noxious combination of orange juice and vodka which was born in Ankara and has since migrated to America."
HOUSE & GARDEN, "Cocktail lore and legend," April 1965
"The Bloody Mary, favorite morning-after restorative, is claimed by George Jessel and at least two New York bartenders, while the screwdriver, which tastes like orange juice but is considerably more potent, is believed to have originated with American oil workers in Iran who drank vodka and orange juice, stirring it with screwdrivers they carried attached to their fatigue pants by loops."
