Mimosa cocktail

The Mimosa is a popular cocktail that combines the vibrant freshness of orange juice with the delightful sparkle of champagne (or sparkling wine). This classic cocktail is a favorite choice for brunches and festive occasions such as King's Day and Easter.

Preparation:

1. Preparation:
   Make sure both the orange juice and the sparkling wine are well chilled for the best result.
2. Combine:
   Pour the orange juice into a champagne flute. Gently top up the glass with the sparkling wine. Pour slowly to avoid excessive foaming.
3. Finish:
   Add a small splash of Cointreau on top.
4. Garnish:
   Garnish with a thin slice of orange on the rim of the glass.

Serving Tips:

Ratio: A traditional Mimosa uses an equal ratio of orange juice and sparkling wine. Adjust to taste – some prefer more wine for a stronger sparkling experience.

Variations: Experiment with other fruit juices like pomegranate or cranberry for a unique twist.

Glassware: Use a flute glass to preserve the bubbles and enhance the presentation.
