The Fuzzy Navel made its debut in the early 1980s, a time when the American cocktail scene was embracing fun, approachable drinks with bold flavors and catchy names. The cocktail's playful moniker comes from its two key ingredients: 'fuzzy' for peach schnapps and 'navel' for navel orange juice. Bartender Ray Foley is credited with coining the name, and the drink quickly became a staple at bars and house parties thanks to its sweet taste and effortless preparation.
