Ingredients and Variations
Cocktail or mocktail? Make either or both!
Sparkling Wine: No need to buy pricey vintages for this recipe! Prosecco and brut champagne are excellent choices as well. Make your mimosas ‘extra’ with a splash of triple sec, if desired. Most champagnes have fewer calories and less alcohol by volume than spirits making mimosas a great choice for breakfast and brunch.
Blood Oranges: Grown mostly in Florida, blood oranges are famous in Miami for use in cocktails year-round. Look for them from December to April. Each orange will produce about 2 ounces of juice, and be sure to get extra oranges for fabulous garnishes!
Variations: Make mocktails using sparkling cider, 7-Up, or club soda! When the blood orange juice is gone, keep the party going and use lemonade cranberry juice, or fruit punch.

Mimosa Tips & Tricks
- To get the most juice from those precious blood oranges, roll them on the counter for a minute or so to loosen the juice.
- Cut each blood orange in half and press each half onto the reamer of a hand-held juicer and turn the fruit back and forth until all the juice is extracted.
- If using a blender, peel and cut blood oranges into chunks and puree until smooth.
