Mimosa Recipe by Inspired Taste

Recipe by Joanne Gallagher of Inspired Taste

Yield: Make 8 Servings

Use a dry sparkling wine, not sweet. We usually will spend $12 to $15 on the sparkling wine we add to our mimosas. Your best bet is to look for “Cava,” which comes from Spain or an American sparkling wine that’s around $15. A dry Prosecco is a great option, too.

Ingredients:

  • 1 (750 ml) bottle chilled dry sparkling wine
  • 3 cups (750 ml) chilled orange juice (freshly squeezed is best)
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) Grand Marnier or triple sec, optional

Directions:

  • Fill 8 champagne flutes 1/2 full with chilled sparkling wine.
  • Top with orange juice.
  • (Optional) Top mimosa with 1 tablespoon of Grand Marnier or triple sec.

Joanne’s Tips:

  • To make 1 mimosa cocktail: In a champagne flute, combine 1/3 cup chilled sparkling wine, 1/3 cup chilled orange juice and 1 tablespoon Grand Marnier or triple sec.
