Notes
- Champagne flutes are typically between 6 and 10 ounces. True mimosa glasses are 10 ounces. This recipe is written for a 10-ounce champagne flute. If yours is smaller, cut back the same amount on each ingredient to fill your glass properly. Proportions are 1 part orange juice, 1 part cranberry juice, 2 parts champagne.
- Use your preference of cranberry juice. Most 100% juice varieties are a blend of cranberry juice and other juices. ‘Cranberry cocktail’ juice usually has sugar in it. Or you can find 100% pure cranberry juice, which is quite tart, but my personal favorite. If too tart, add a teaspoon of simple syrup (or try this cranberry simple syrup) to the drink before adding the champagne.Tall slender glasses help retain the effervescence of the drink.
- Champagne is named for its location as it comes from the Champagne region of France. Sparkling wine can be used in place of it. I prefer Brut or Brut Extra Dry.For an even fresher tasting mimosa, freshly squeeze your orange juice.Add champagne slowly as it bubbles up quickly and can overflow.
- Virgin Mimosa Recipe | A virgin mimosa recipe is easy to make! Replace the champagne with your favorite sparkling water, sparkling cider or use an alcohol-free sparkling wine.
