Basic Mimosa Recipe
It doesn't get any easier than this, the basic Mimosa recipe calls for a bottle of your favorite champagne and orange juice. A dash of each and you are in business to celebrate a wedding, Mother's day, whatever the occasion - nothing says fancy brunch like a Mimosa.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Total Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients:

  • Champagne (1 bottle)
  • Orange Juice (1 carton)

Preparation:

Fill half of a champagne flute with chilled champagne (about 2 ounces) and top off with chilled orange juice (again about 2 ounces), gently stir. For added flare, slice up a strawberry to decorate the rim of each flute. Enjoy! * Also delightful over ice

AWESOME and EASY, Member ColoradoFoodie

A fool proof mimosa - great to start with this basic recipe and then experiment with additions from there. I added Grand Marnier and fresh squeezed OJ - delish!
