Minted Mimosa Punch
Description
Minted Mimosa Punch is a festive cocktail featuring a blend of orange juice, champagne, citrus-flavored vodka, and blood orange Italian soda. The inclusion of sliced oranges, strawberries, and fresh mint leaves adds natural fruitiness and a crisp herbal undertone. The method mixes these ingredients with ice in a pitcher, allowing flavors to mingle especially if refrigerated for about 30 minutes before serving. Poured over crushed ice and garnished with additional fruit, it presents a visually appealing and refreshing drink that balances sweetness and effervescence.
The punch's bright citrus base paired with the slight bitterness from the champagne and soda creates a lively beverage ideal for social occasions. The fresh mint leaves contribute a cooling note, complementing the fruity components. It is practical for preparing ahead and serving in batches for multiple guests.
Ingredients
- 2 cups orange juice cold
- 2 champagne 750 mL bottles; chilled
- 1 Blood Orange Italian Soda 16-ounce bottle; cold
- ½ cup vodka citrus flavor optional
- 2 orange thinly sliced, navel
- 1 pint strawberries sliced
- 1 /2 cup mint leaf plus extra for garnish, fresh
Instructions
- Combine the juice, champagne, soda and vodka in a large pitcher with a bit of ice, the orange slices and the strawberries, leaving just a few out for garnishes in the drink. Stir in the fresh mint leaves. This tastes amazing once it sits for about 30 minutes in the fridge, but you can serve it right away too.
- Pour over crushed ice and garnish with extra orange slices or strawberries!
