Add 3 juice ice cubes into each champagne flute, pour the sparkling wine and serve immediately. Enjoy!
A few tips
I prefer to use fresh juices in mimosas, feel free to use bottled juice instead. I used this awesome little juicer I found on Amazon that works great for any citrus fruit and is so cheap!
I bought my gorgeous stemless champagne flutes last year at ALDI. I found similar flutes on Amazon.
You can use prosecco, champagne, or sparkling wine for mimosas.
I like my mimosas a little heavy on the alcohol, if you like them a little lighter make more juice ice cubes.
Use any fruit you like or have on hand to add to the juice cubes like berries, maraschino cherries, mangoes, kiwis, etc.
Feel free to skip the mint if you’re not a fan, I added it for color and because it looks so beautiful and festive.
