Classic Champagne Mimosa
Let’s face it, nothing says ‘I woke up like this’ quite like a Classic Champagne Mimosa. It’s the effortless glamour of brunches, the liquid equivalent of throwing on sunglasses indoors and calling it a look.
Ingredients
- 1 bottle of chilled champagne (because warm bubbles are a crime against brunch)

- 1 tbsp of orange liqueur (optional, but highly recommended for those who like their mornings with a side of mischief)
Instructions
- Chill your champagne flute in the freezer for about 10 minutes before you start. A frosty glass is the secret handshake of mimosa enthusiasts.
- Pour the chilled champagne into the flute until it’s about halfway full. This isn’t the time for shyness—give it a generous pour.
- Slowly add the fresh orange juice to the champagne, filling the glass almost to the top. The key here is to pour gently to preserve those precious bubbles.
- If you’re feeling fancy, drizzle in the orange liqueur. It’s like adding a little sparkle to an already sparkling moment.
- Give it a light stir with a long spoon to combine everything without deflating the champagne’s spirit (or bubbles).

Ingredients
- 1 oz gin (because life’s too short for cheap spirits)

- 1/2 oz simple syrup (equal parts sugar and water, because balance is key)
- 3 oz champagne (the bubblier, the better—this is no time for shy fizz)
- Ice cubes (preferably the clear, fancy kind, but we won’t judge)
Instructions
- Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice cubes to chill your mix without diluting it too much.
- Pour in the gin, fresh lemon juice, and simple syrup. Shake vigorously for about 15 seconds—this is your arm workout for the day.
