The Non-Alcoholic Mimosa is a delightful beverage that brings the joy of brunch to everyone, regardless of age or preference for alcohol. This refreshing drink combines the tangy sweetness of orange juice with the effervescent sparkle of carbonated water, making it a perfect accompaniment to breakfast gatherings, baby showers, or any celebration. Traditionally, mimosas are made with champagne, but our alcohol-free version ensures that everyone can enjoy its bright, citrusy flavours without missing out on the fun. It's a simple yet elegant drink that brings a touch of class to any occasion.

Instructions

Prepare the orange juice

Juice fresh oranges until you have 2 cups of juice. Strain to remove pulp if desired.

Pro tip: Use a citrus juicer for best results.

Add optional sweetness

If you prefer a sweeter mimosa, stir in 1 tablespoon of honey until fully dissolved.

Pro tip: Warm the honey slightly to make it easier to mix.

Chill the ingredients

Ensure both the orange juice and sparkling water are thoroughly chilled before proceeding.

Pro tip: Place them in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.

Mix the mimosa

In a large pitcher, combine the chilled orange juice and sparkling water. Stir gently to mix.

Pro tip: Pour slowly to maintain the carbonation.

Prepare glasses

Fill each champagne flute with ice cubes if using, and then pour the mimosa mixture over the ice.

Pro tip: Avoid overfilling to prevent spills.

Garnish and serve

Garnish each glass with a slice of orange on the rim. Serve immediately while chilled.

Pro tip: Add a sprig of fresh mint for extra aroma.

Serving Suggestions

Serve your Non-Alcoholic Mimosa in champagne flutes for an elegant presentation. This beverage pairs wonderfully with a variety of breakfast dishes such as pancakes, waffles, or a classic eggs benedict. You can prepare the orange juice ahead of time and keep it chilled in the refrigerator.
