Mimosa, a cocktail that’s mainly made up of a percentage of prosecco and fresh juice, was first invented by a bartender in Paris back in 1925.
The Christmas Mimosa, adds to the beauty of it by turning the original Mimosa cocktail into another chilled goodness that’s even fruitier, yummier, and prettier and has that whole Christmas vibe to it.
It’s the Christmas morning, preparations were hectic but everything came out smooth.
Santa Claus sneaked in, the kids are playing with their presents, and mommy and daddy are enjoying their Christmas Mimosas on the couch.
They’re happy and they’ve earned it.
Simply because the Christmas Mimosa is in fact one of the most tasteful breakfast and brunch cocktails you can have for Christmas. The grapey, appley, and pomegranate comfort with angelic combination of cranberry juice and sparkling prosecco is heavenly.
And it’s not just for Christmas, just switch from cranberry juice to orange juice and you’ll have yourself an ideal, year-round festive cocktail!
