Made in MN: Three Great Minnesota Wine Brands
When you think of where wine comes from, where is the place that comes to mind? Mabe Italy, France, Spain, or...
Mimosa: mi·mo·sa (noun): mimosa; plural noun: mimosas
We learn something new every day. We’re going with option four for the sake of relevance. Mimosas have long been a brunch favorite: a little bubbly, a little fresh orange juice, and some time with friends. What’s not to love? We also love to stir things up a bit with trying new recipes. If you love a traditional Mimosa, we think you’ll love these too.
You don’t have to use a true Champagne. Any sparkling wine you enjoy is perfect. Consider a Cava or a Prosecco, which are both affordable and enjoyable.
Ingredients:
Combine orange juice and vodka into a measuring cup. Pour about 1/4 of a cup into each glass, then fill the remaining space with champagne. Top with a squirt of whipped cream and crystal sprinkles. Serves 4.
Ingredients:
Combine fresh blood orange juice with sugar and orange liqueur in a large measuring cup and stir to combine. Cover and refrigerate until chilled. To serve, pour into the bottom of Champagne glasses and slowly top off with ice-cold Prosecco. Serves 4-6.
Ingredients:
Blend until smooth and pour into a cocktail glass. Add the Champagne and garnish with a whole strawberry and an orange slice. Note: you can also use frozen strawberries in syrup, partially thawed, if you don't have strawberry syrup.
BONUS: The sister to Mimosa must be a Bellini. Try this for a sparkling peachy brunch favorite.
Ingredients:
Mix sparkling wine and peach puree and serve in a champagne flute.
