Like most mixed drinks, the Mimosa, that brunch staple, is better when the ingredients are of high quality. This doesn't mean you should use that incredible bottle of Champagne you were given as a birthday present, but it does mean you should use a good, dry sparkling wine that tastes delicious without the addition of fruit juice. Cava, which may bring to mind Champagne more than prosecco does, is also substantially lower in price. As to the juice, squeeze it fresh - from whatever sorts of orange citrus you like best - and strain it.

This mimosa is a great way to use up leftover champagne. I always have a bottle of champagne in the fridge, so it's nice to have a recipe that I can use to make a delicious drink with it.

I like to garnish my mimosa with a twist of orange peel. It adds a nice touch of flavor and color.

I've made this mimosa with both prosecco and champagne and both are delicious. I prefer the prosecco because it's a little less expensive, but the champagne is definitely a more luxurious option.

This mimosa is the perfect balance of sweet and tart. The orange juice and champagne are a classic combination, and the Grand Marnier adds a nice touch of complexity.

This mimosa recipe turned out beautifully! The layers were distinct and the flavors complemented each other perfectly. I especially enjoyed the tangy orange juice and the creamy champagne.
