Method
 

Preparation
  1. Fill a shaker with ice cubes.
  2. Pour in the vodka, triple sec, orange juice, and cranberry juice.
  3. Secure the shaker cap tightly and shake well until the mixture is chilled.
  4. Strain the cocktail into a glass filled with fresh ice.
  5. Garnish with thin orange slices on the rim and serve immediately.

Notes

For a fruity kick, add muddled fresh berries to the shaker. Substitute half of the orange juice with another fruit juice for a tropical twist. Flavored vodkas can introduce new dimensions. For a non-alcoholic version, replace vodka and triple sec with sparkling water.
