Notes

  1. This recipe is written for one drink. You can easily scale up the recipe for a crowd by changing the number of servings in the recipe card.
  2. I use cranberry juice cocktail in this recipe because the sweetness is a great counterbalance to the acidity of the orange juice. You can use unsweetened cranberry juice, but the mimosa will be on the tart side.
  3. Choose your favorite sparkling wine for this drink. Some great options include champagne, cava or prosecco.
