What Is A Mimosa?

A classic mimosa is served with two ingredients:

orange juice
champagne

However, with the popularity of craft cocktails they have really taken off and you can now find so many variations.

I’ve even shared a low-carb mimosa that’s become a family favorite.

Some other fun variations are:

Pomegranate – you can also use Pom juice
Bellini – using peach juice
Apple – switching out orange juice for apple juice

What Is The Best Champagne For A Mimosa

Mimosas are actually best served with a sweet and fruity sparkling wine. As you are adding juice, you don’t want to use your best champagne.

Save that bad boy for a special occasion!

Here are some popular options for mimosas:

Prosecco
Cava

Tips For Serving Mimosas

Best served chilled
Serve in champagne flutes for a classic mimosa
The standard ratio is 2-1 champagne to juice
Set up a mimosa bar with fresh fruit and juices where guests can make their own variation
