Pomegranate Mimosa
A delicious and festive Pomegranate Mimosa made with sparkling wine, Cointreau, and pomegranate juice. The perfect champagne cocktail recipe for holiday parties!
Servings: 1 cocktail
Cost: $5
Ingredients
- 1 oz chilled pomegranate juice (recommend POM)
- ½ oz Cointreau (or other orange-flavored liqueur), optional
- 4 oz Sparkling wine, chilled (recommend brut)
- 1 teaspoon pomegranate seeds (for garnish)
- Orange peel (for garnish)
Instructions
- Pour 1 oz pomegranate juice and 1/2 oz Cointreau into a champagne flute or wine stem. (If you like it sweet, add more juice. If you like it less sweet, add less juice.)
- Top glass with sparkling wine. Add pomegranate seeds for garnish and a twist of orange peel.
Notes
If you don’t have Cointreau then orange juice may substitute, although I will often omit the Cointreau all together if there are no alternatives available.
Use a sparkline wine that is good but not overly expensive. Keep it under $20 like a Prosecco, North American Sparkling wine like Gruet (New Mexico), or Cava.
