Head to head
Bay Breeze and Screwdriver side by side: what changes in the recipe, the balance, the strength and the calories.
The difference, by the numbers
Both have vodka. Only the Bay Breeze has cranberry juice and pineapple juice; only the Screwdriver has orange juice. In parts, a Bay Breeze is 1½ vodka, 2¼ cranberry and 1 pineapple; a Screwdriver is 1 vodka and 2 orange. By volume, the Bay Breeze is 70% mixer and juice and 30% spirit; the Screwdriver is 67% mixer and juice and 33% spirit. That makes them close cousins on the ratio map.
The Screwdriver is the stronger drink in the glass (12.1% ABV against 8.4%), but being smaller it holds about the same alcohol (1.13 standard drinks each). The Bay Breeze has more calories (about 176 against 158) and more sugar (13.9 g against 8.8 g). Both are served in a highball; the Bay Breeze is shaken, the Screwdriver built.
