Number Of Ingredients 4

1 bottle dry champagne***
1/2 gal orange juice (fresh if available)
triple sec or grand marnier
1 medium orange sliced thin (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. NOTE: IT IS IMPORTANT TO KEEP CHAMPAGNE & ORANGE JUICE CHILLED. Pour orange juice into glass pitcher and nestle pitcher in a large bowl filled with ice. Open champagne and nestle bottle in a large iced filled bowl
  • 2. In champagne flute or wine glass, pour 2 ounces chilled orange juice and then 3 ounces of champagne. If desired, you can place a small amount of crushed ice in bottom of glass before pouring liquids into it. Note: Always pour orange juice in first to mitigate sticky glass. DO NOT STIR AS THIS WILL FLATTEN CHAMPAGNE !!! Place a drop of triple sec in the center of the mixture and let it settle into a beautiful "sunrise". Garnish rim of glass with orange slice (optional)
  • 3. ***For non-alcoholic mimosa, use 7-up, Sprite or sparkling white grape juice.
