Looking for the best mimosa recipe?
Mimosas are festive, fun, and easy to make. The basic mimosa is a combination of 50% sparkling wine and 50% orange juice. This beverage is usually served in champagne flutes. Mimosa cocktails are the perfect beverage for celebrating at home.

Most of us are spending more time at home because of COVID-19 . . .

This doesn’t mean we can’t celebrate with a delicious Mimosa. Mimosas hit the spot as the perfect beverage for breakfast, brunch, or evening relaxation. Cheers-2-Wine is pleased to share these mimosa recipes.

Start with a dry sparkling wine for these mimosa drinks.

• • Look for a Sparkling Wine priced between $10 and $20. There are many to choose from. Suggestions include Toad Hollow Risque French Sparkling Wine, a non-vintage sparkling wine from Languedoc-Roussillon, France. Korbel Organic Brut from California is another good choice. Freixenet Cava Carta Nevada Semi Dry from Spain would work well. Any of these sparklers would be a terrific choice!
