Ingredients
- 1 cup orange Juice freshly squeezed
- 1 bottle of Champagne or sparkling wine
Instructions
- Make sure both the orange juice and the champagne are chilled. Refrigerate them in advance if necessary.
- Fill two-thirds of the glass with champagne. Pour down the side of the glass to minimize the amount of fizz.
- Add a splash of orange juice. Leave some space at the top of the glass to allow for bubbles.
- If the drink warrants it, stir lightly to mix and serve immediately.
Notes
- A Mimosa is best served cold so make sure your orange juice and champagne are well chilled before serving.
- A good quality Prosecco or Cava can do wonders instead of an expensive Champagne. Just don't choose an overly sweet one, which could overpower the OJ.
- I can't stress this enough: freshly squeezed orange juice!
- First champagne, then OJ. This prevents the glass from foaming over AND allows the two to blend naturally.
