Sycamore Den, the San Diego cocktail lounge inspired by 1970s “Dad,” pays tribute to the iconic tipple with its own twist- the Hardly Wallbanger. Crafted by cocktail curator Eric Johnson, the Den's version includes the addition of fresh lemon juice, simple syrup and vanilla extract to the original drink recipe (vodka, Galliano and orange juice).

In a shaker about a third-full with ice cubes, add all ingredients besides seltzer. Shake briefly to blend and chill, then strain into a Collins glass filled about two-thirds of the way up with cracked ice. Top with seltzer and add additional ice as needed.
