Vodka with peach schnapps, cranberry, and OJ makes a sweet and tangy cocktail that's best served on the beach but enjoyed just about anywhere.

1 1/2 ounce vodka
1 1/2 ounce peach schnapps
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1/2 cup cranberry juice
Combine the vodka, schnapps, orange juice, and cranberry juice in a shaker and mix well.
Add ice to a tall glass. Pour the cocktail over the ice. Serve immediately.
