Sparkling base

12 oz Buzzkill Sparkling (low‑alcohol sparkling wine or nonalcoholic sparkling)

Juices (choose one or make a flight)

3 oz Fresh orange juice3 oz Fresh grapefruit juice3 oz Pineapple juice3 oz Cranberry juice

Optional finishing & garnish

1/2 tbs Simple syrup (optional, for sweetness)1 each Fresh citrus wheel or wedge (orange, grapefruit, or pineapple chunk)4 cubes Ice (for chilled glass or serving pitcher)

Method

Prepare juices and glassware

Chill and measure

Make sure your Buzzkill Sparkling and chosen juice are well chilled (ideally 40°F / 4–7°C). If serving immediately, chill flutes or coupe glasses in the freezer for 5–10 minutes or rinse with cold water and let drain.

If using fresh citrus (orange or grapefruit), roll the fruit on the counter firmly with the palm of your hand to loosen juices, then cut and juice enough to yield 3 oz per serving. For pineapple, use cold, strained juice. For cranberry, use 100% juice (not cocktail) for best flavor.

Mixing (single serving)

Build a single Mimosa

Add 3 oz of your chosen juice to a chilled flute or coupe. If you prefer a slightly sweeter drink and your juice is tart, add up to 1/2 tablespoon simple syrup now and gently stir once to combine.

Slowly top with 12 oz Buzzkill Sparkling poured down the side of the glass to preserve carbonation and prevent foaming. Pour gently until the glass is nearly full, leaving ~1/2 inch headspace.

Garnish with a citrus wheel, wedge, or pineapple chunk on the rim. Serve immediately while fizzy.

Batching for 4 servings (optional)

For four servings, combine 12 oz (3 oz × 4) of the chosen juice in a chilled pitcher. Add 48 oz Buzzkill Sparkling (12 oz × 4) just before serving. If desired, add up to 2 tablespoons simple syrup to the pitcher to balance tart juices; stir gently, then top with Buzzkill and ladle into chilled glasses.

If serving on ice: fill each glass with 1–2 ice cubes first, then add juice and top with Buzzkill. Note that ice will dilute and reduce fizz more quickly; for best texture, serve without ice in flutes.
