A full and detailed recipe card is at the bottom of this post.
Glass Rim
- Place sugar onto a plate or in a small bowl.
- In your preferred wine-serving glasses, run the orange wedge over the rims of the glasses to moisten them.
- Dip the rims into the sugar for an even coat.
Mimosa:
- Fill each glass halfway with the rosé.
- Top up each glass with the fresh orange juice.
- Add a few fresh raspberries and mint leaves to each mimosa for garnish.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Expert Tips
- Chilled is Best: Ensure that both your rosé and orange juice are well-chilled before making the mimosa.
- Ratio: The classic mimosa ratio is 1:1 (wine to juice), but this can be adjusted based on personal preference. For a more delicate flavor, consider using a bit more rosé than juice.
- Gentle Pour: When pouring the rosé into the glass, tilt the glass at an angle and pour slowly. This will help preserve the wine’s bubbles.
- Serve Immediately: Mimosas are best enjoyed right after they’re made to appreciate their bubbles.
