Champagne Mimosa
Champagne Mimosas are a sophisticated treat with brunch. Dress them up by serving in tulip glasses on ice or simply multiply the recipe and fill up a pitcher. If you can swing it, use fresh-squeezed orange juice. Also, we would recommend a dry champagne or sparkling wine (such as a “Cava”), not a sweet wine. A classic mimosa recipe calls for equal parts sparkling wine to orange juice, however, you can certainly adjust the recipe to have less (or more) alcohol if desired. For a festive touch, add a splash of cranberry juice. For something special, add a tablespoon of liqueur like Grand Marnier or Chambord. For a mimosa mocktail, use sparkling soda.
