How to Make a Mimosa
This video bartending lesson from the American Bartenders School demonstrates how to make a classic Mimosa. The expert bartender explains that authentic Mimosas are made with champagne, rather than generic sparkling wine, and fresh orange juice. The champagne is poured into the glass first, followed by the fresh orange juice. -
Introduction
- When it comes to sweet and refreshing cocktails that are easy to make and sure to impress, Mimosas are the cream of the crop. Originally invented in Paris in the early 1920's, the mimosa has become an enduring cocktail that few can resist. Whether it's as an early morning pick me-up or a brunch-time cocktail, mimosas are delicious and extremely easy to make. So if you're looking to add a little class to your mid-day celebration, break out the bubbly and get ready for a beautiful buzz!

Making a Mimosa
- Make sure to chill both the champagne and the orange juice at least an hour before serving.
- Decide on how many Mimosas you want to make and set out that number of champagne flutes
- Pour 2 oz. of orange juice into each of the glasses you've laid out.
- Add a small amount of orange liqueur to each glass.
- Fill the rest of each glass with champagne (about 3 oz.) and stir well.

Mimosa Tips and Tricks
- Make sure to serve your mimosas directly after pouring them. If you wait too long, the carbonation from the champagne will dissipate and you will have a flat cocktail.
- For a better mimosa, use fresh squeezed orange juice and high quality dry champagne.
- If you want to make a non-alcoholic mimosa , simply substitute sparkling apple juice for the champagne.
- While you may be tempted to add ice to cool down the drink, it can dilute the cocktail and give it a watery taste.
- Prechill the glasses to help keep the Mimosa cold.
- Experiment with orange juice blends, such as orange-tangerine or orange-grapefruit, for a different twist on the traditional mimosa.
- Serving the mimosa in a champagne flute concentrates the carbonation.
Mimosa Variations
- As with most cocktails, there are many different variations on the traditional mimosa recipe. If you're tired of making the same old mimosas every time, try out a few of these adventurous recipes:
