There are som many versions of the Mimosa Cocktail, and it can be served i most glasses. But where does the word "mimosa" in the mimosa cocktail come from?
The name "Mimosa" comes from the mimosa flower. The flower is known for its bright yellow blossoms, which reflect the color of the drink, traditionally made with orange juice and sparkling wine, usually champagne.
There are several theories about where the mimosa cocktail was first created. One common theory is that it was invented at the Ritz Hotel in Paris around 1925 by bartender Frank Meier. Another theory is that the drink was first introduced at Buck's Club in London during the same period. The name of the drink comes from the resemblance in color to the mimosa flower.
