MIMOSA FLOAT



Mimosa Float image

A cool twist on the classiest way to start your morning with booze, for those of us who loved root beer floats as children. I recommend using a wine glass rather than a champagne flute, as the sorbet can be a bit unwieldy and stirring can be difficult with the flute. This could probably be adapted into a punch recipe for weddings and such, but I think it is best enjoyed with one or two friends on the porch on a warm summer morning.
