Fantastic Mimosa Recipe
I recently made a big pitcher of Mimosas (my favorite cocktail!) for a brunch get-together and they were so delicious. I've tried several recipes to find my favorite and this one definitely wins. Grab your favorite glass and enjoy.
Also, anyone notice how Facebook is kind of kickin' the bucket lately? I wrote about it (and whined about it) in my blog post, and also created a newsletter for folks who want to keep up with my blog. Head over and rant with me and sign up if you're interested. If not, that's cool. You can still have a mimosa.
Mimosas
Recipe by: Adapted from Inspired Taste
Yield: 1 pitcher of Mimosas (8 servings)
This is my favorite Mimosa recipe! Serve a big pitcher of Mimosas at brunch for a bright, fresh zing!
Ingredients:
1 (750 mL) bottle of Prosecco, chilled
1/2 cup Triple Sec, chilled
3 cups (plus a smidge) pulp-free orange juice (I used a regular sweetened version), chilled
orange slices and raspberries for garnish
Directions:
Make sure all of the ingredients are well chilled. Not long before serving, pour the champagne into the pitcher first. Add Triple Sec and then add orange juice. Adding the orange juice last will naturally mix the mixture so you don't have to stir and lose bubbliness. Add the orange slices and chill the mixture until ready to serve. To serve, pour into a champagne flute and add a few raspberries for color. Keep the pitcher chilled between rounds.
