Unquestionably, Galliano L’Autentico is the ingredient that sets Harvey Wallbanger apart from other Screwdriver renditions. Indeed, had the Harvey Wallbanger been less successful, it’s unlikely we would have known about Galliano L’Autentico.

So, what the heck is this fancy-sounding ingredient—and what’s the deal with the super-tall bottle design? First off, Galliano L’Autentico is an Italian liqueur that was first created in the 19th century. Although we don’t know everything that goes in this drink, most people describe it as a mix of vanilla and licorice.

As for the distinctive bottle design, manufacturers claim it’s supposed to look like an artifact from an old Roman structure. Specifically, this bottle is said to resemble a Greco-Roman column.   

OK, now that you know what Galliano is, you’re probably wondering what else you could do with this drink. While you could drink Galliano on its own as an aperitif, it’s relatively easy to work into other cocktails. Anything you feel could use a little vanilla flavor will do well with this spirit.

For instance, many people love boozing-up their Coca-Cola or root beer with a dab of Galliano. Take a look at the many cocktails on Tribe CBD’s blog and see what Galliano might go good with.
