Classic Mimosa Drink Recipe

A classic mimosa drink is a simple yet elegant cocktail that's perfect as welcome drink, for brunch or any celebratory occasion.

Here’s how to make it:

Ingredients:

  • 1 part orange juice (preferably freshly squeezed)
  • 1 part champagne (or sparkling wine)
  • Optional: orange slices or twists for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Chill the Ingredients: Ensure both the orange juice and champagne are well chilled before preparing the drink.

  2. Prepare the Glass: Select a champagne flute for serving. This helps retain the bubbles and adds a touch of elegance.

  3. Pour the Orange Juice: Fill the champagne flute halfway with orange juice.

  4. Add the Champagne: Slowly top off the glass with champagne, pouring gently to maintain the bubbles.

  5. Garnish (Optional): Add a slice of orange or a twist of orange peel to the rim of the glass for a decorative touch.

  6. Serve Immediately: Mimosas are best enjoyed fresh to experience the full effervescence of the champagne.

Tips:

  • Ratio: The classic ratio is 1:1, but you can adjust according to your taste preference. Some prefer a stronger champagne flavor, while others like more orange juice.
  • Variations: You can experiment with different types of citrus juices like blood orange, grapefruit, or a mix of citrus for a unique twist.
  • Sparkling Wine: If you don’t have champagne, a good quality sparkling wine or prosecco works just as well.

Enjoy your refreshing and delightful mimosa!
