You don’t need a recipe, but here’s a loose ratio: one part orange juice to two parts sparkling wine. That’s it. If you want more bubbles, pour more wine. If you want more breakfast, pour more juice.
The Best Mimosa Cocktail Recipe by DrinksWorld
Use a flute if you have one, but a coffee mug or a water glass works just fine. The mimosa does not care about your glassware — it cares about your vibe.
Pro tip: Chill everything before mixing. Warm orange juice kills the fizz faster than a dad joke at a dinner party. Keep the wine in the fridge for at least two hours.
The world of variations
Once you master the classic, you can play. Swap orange juice for grapefruit juice and you’ve got a “Paloma Mimosa” — like a brunch and a spa day had a baby.
Use cranberry juice and you’re basically drinking a “Poinsettia,” which sounds fancy but tastes like Christmas morning in a glass. Add a splash of pomegranate juice and call it a “French 75’s little cousin.”
Even non-alcoholic versions exist: just use sparkling cider or soda water instead of wine. Call it a “Faux-mosa” and feel clever about it.
