Perfect Mimosa Drinkki: Ultimate Brunch Guide


  • Author: Rachel Mills
  • Total Time: 5 minutes
  • Yield: Serves 8

Description

The mimosa drinkki traces its roots back to the luxurious cafes of Paris in the early 1920s. Named after the vibrant Mimosa flower for its golden color, this drink has become synonymous with celebrations, whether it’s a Sunday brunch or a significant milestone. Its rise in popularity is attributed to its simplicity and the joy of toasting with something light and bubbly.


Ingredients

Scale

1 bottle (750 ml) of chilled Champagne, Prosecco, or Cava

3 cups (750 ml) of chilled orange juice (preferably pulp-free for a smoother drink)

Optional: Orange slices for garnish


Instructions

Chill Your Ingredients:

For the best mimosa drinkki, ensure both your sparkling wine and orange juice are well-chilled. This eliminates the need for ice, which can dilute the drink.

Prepare Your Glassware:

If you have them, chill your champagne flutes ahead of time. This keeps the drink colder for longer and adds an extra touch of elegance.

Pour the Sparkling Wine:

Open your chilled bottle of sparkling wine. Tilt the champagne flute at an angle and pour the sparkling wine into the glass, filling it about halfway. Pouring at an angle helps preserve the bubbles.

Add the Orange Juice:

Slowly top the sparkling wine with orange juice, filling up to just below the rim of the glass. The traditional ratio is 1:1, but feel free to adjust according to your taste preference.

Garnish (Optional):

If desired, garnish with a slice of orange on the rim of the glass or a small orange twist inside the drink.

Serve Immediately:

Mimosas are best enjoyed fresh, so serve them immediately after preparation to enjoy the effervescence and chilled temperature.

Enjoy Responsibly:

Raise your glass, toast to the occasion, and enjoy your perfectly crafted mimosa drinkki!
