Ingredients

For One Drink

• ▢ 4 ounces sparkling wine or Prosecco see notes
• ▢ 2 ounces orange juice
• ▢ 2 ounces pure cranberry juice
• ▢ Fresh cranberries for garnish

For A Crowd (serves 4-6)

• ▢ 750 ml bottle sparkling wine or Prosecoo
• ▢ 1 ¼ cups orange juice
• ▢ ½ cup pure cranberry juice
• ▢ Fresh cranberries for garnish

Things You’ll Need

• ▢
  Champagne flutes

Before You Begin

• There are many kinds of sparkling wine. I often opt for Italian Prosecco in a mimosa because it’s more affordable than traditional French Champagne— but still just as delicious.
• I recommend using freshly squeezed orange juice, although bottled will work as well.
• It is important to use pure cranberry juice, not cranberry juice cocktail. Pure cranberry juice has a more tart, berry flavor while cranberry juice cocktail is very sweet and fruity.
• Make sure to chill the sparkling wine, orange juice, and cranberry juice before making your cocktail. Mimosas should be served chilled, but not with ice.
• I do not recommend making mimosa more than 15 minutes before serving as the sparkling wine will start to flatten (lose its bubbles) immediately once opened.

Instructions

For One Drink

• Add the sparkling wine, orange juice, and cranberry juice to a champagne flute. Garnish with a few fresh cranberries. Serve immediately.

For A Crowd

• Combine the sparkling wine, orange juice, cranberry juice, and fresh cranberries in a large pitcher. Pour into champagne flutes as needed.
