Mimosa
A bright, bubbly, and classic brunch cocktail, the Mimosa is a simple two-ingredient drink combining chilled sparkling wine (typically Prosecco or Champagne) and orange juice.
Chill glass
Chill a Champagne flute by placing it in the freezer for a few minutes or filling it with ice water and discarding the water before use.
💡 Tips:
- •A well-chilled glass helps keep the Mimosa colder and bubblier.
Add orange juice
Pour 2.5 ounces (75 ml) of chilled fresh orange juice into the bottom of the prepared Champagne flute.
💡 Tips:
- •Freshly squeezed orange juice offers the best flavor. Use pulp-free if preferred.
Top with sparkling wine
Slowly top the orange juice with 2.5 ounces (75 ml) of chilled sparkling wine (Prosecco or Champagne). The standard ratio is 1:1, but can be adjusted.
💡 Tips:
- •Pour slowly to minimize foam and preserve carbonation. Do not stir, as the liquids will naturally combine.
Garnish (optional)
Optionally, garnish with 1 orange slice on the rim of the glass.
💡 Tips:
- •A simple garnish enhances the presentation.
- 💡Use good quality, chilled sparkling wine (dry or brut Prosecco works well).
- 💡Freshly squeezed orange juice is highly recommended for superior taste.
- 💡Adjust the ratio to your preference (e.g., more orange juice for sweeter, more sparkling wine for a stronger, drier drink).
- 💡Always ensure both ingredients are very cold before mixing.
