Ingredients Needed for Mimosa Cocktail:
Sparkling Wine: For the perfect mimosa, start with a dry, chilled sparkling wine that suits your taste- Champagne, Cava, Prosecco, or an American Sparkling Wine all work well. Cava and Prosecco tend to be budget-friendly options.
Orange Juice: Freshly squeeze orange juice is ideal, offering a bright, tart and delicate flavour that enhances the drink. If fresh juice isn’t an option, a high-quality store-bought alternative can work in a pinch. The balance of crisp bubbles and citrusy sweetness makes this classic cocktail a refreshing favourite for any occasion.
Orange Slice: Orange slice is used for garnishing.
Storage Tips:
For the freshest taste and bubbly texture, prepare mimosa just before serving. If using freshly squeezed orange juice, you can make it up to two days in advance. Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain its freshness. Avoid pre-mixing with Champagne, as it may lose its fizz.
