Prosecco Mimosa Ingredients 

Orange Juice: Fresh squeezed is always best. However, it doesn’t have to be homemade, fresh-squeezed. There are plenty of freshly squeezed orange juices available at your local grocery store.

Prosecco: An affordable bottle is perfect for mimosas. Prosecco is an Italian sparkling wine. It is typically light and dry with a slightly fruity flavor. It’s a great choice for a mimosa because it is not too sweet.

How to Make a Prosecco Mimosa 

1. Fill a Champagne flute with Prosecco.
2. Add in the orange juice.
3. Leave it as is or garnish with an orange slice.

Champagne vs Prosecco

Prosecco and Champagne may seem similar, but they’re different! Prosecco, from Italy, is made with white grapes using the tank method, giving it a light, delicate flavor.

Champagne, from France, often has notes of almond, white cherry, or citrus and is usually pricier. Prosecco is a more affordable, flavorful choice for mimosas!

Prosecco Mimosa Ratio

Mimosas are about balance. You don’t want to have too much orange juice, but you also don’t want to put in too much Prosecco, which would ruin the beverage’s taste. 

The best Prosecco mimosa ratio is adding 3 ounces of Prosecco and orange juice. Depending on personal preference, you can add more or less of each until you achieve the desired taste.

Mimosas for a Party

If you’re making mimosas for a gathering here is our ratio for 8 guests:

• 1 bottle of Prosecco 

• 3 cups orange juice

• 8 Champagne Flutes

Fill each glass halfway with Prosecco and then halfway with orange juice, leaving a small amount of room at the top. No one wants a glass filled to the brim!

Eden’s Recipe Tips

• For the best bubbles, don’t mix the ingredients before pouring – this can make the Prosecco go flat. Instead, follow these simple tips:

• Fresh-squeezed orange juice gives the best flavor, but if using store-bought, go for pulp-free.

• Chill all ingredients before serving for a crisp, refreshing mimosa.

• For extra flavor, add a splash of Cointreau! Add 1/2 ounce to your Prosecco mimosa for even more orange flavor and sweetness.

• Make a virgin mimosa by swapping Prosecco for sparkling water or juice.

Pineapple Juice: Pineapple juice can also be used in place of orange juice. For a tropical twist on the classic mimosa, try using pineapple juice instead of orange juice.
