Method
Prepare glass
Chill (optional)
If you prefer a very cold Mimosa, fill a flute or coupe with ice cubes and cold water. Let sit 1–2 minutes, then discard ice and water before assembling.
Mix juices & flavor
In a small pitcher or measuring cup, combine the freshly squeezed orange juice (0.5 cup) and lemon juice (1 tablespoon). If you like a slightly sweeter or more complex flavor, stir in the simple syrup (1 teaspoon) and/or orange liqueur (1/2 tablespoon). Taste and adjust: add more simple syrup if you prefer sweeter, or more lemon for brightness.
Assemble cocktail
Pour about 1/4 to 1/3 of the glass with the juice mixture (roughly 2–3 tablespoons for a standard flute; this recipe uses 0.5 cup juice split across two cocktails — adjust if serving one). Slowly top with chilled sparkling wine (about 1.5 cups total for 2–3 servings; for a single serving pour ~4–5 ounces/1/2 cup) to preserve bubbles. Pour at an angle so the bubbles remain lively.
Give the drink one gentle stir with a bar spoon (1–2 slow turns) if the liqueur or syrup was added. Avoid vigorous stirring to keep carbonation.
Garnish & serve
Garnish with a thin orange wheel or twist on the rim and, if desired, a small mint sprig tucked alongside. Serve immediately while sparkling is lively.
