Tequila Sunrise Mimosa - Cocktail
Method
Tequila Sunrise Mimosa - Method
Prepare glass and ingredients
Chill the sparkling wine and orange juice ahead of time (refrigerate at least 1 hour). If you prefer a chilled stemmed flute, place the empty glass in the freezer for 10–15 minutes or add a few ice cubes to a stemless glass and then discard them before pouring.
Add tequila and orange juice
Pour 1 oz silver tequila into a chilled champagne flute or stemless wine glass. Add 4 oz chilled orange juice and gently stir once with a bar spoon to combine the tequila and juice without flattening the bubbles too much.
Top with sparkling wine
Slowly pour 3 oz chilled brut sparkling wine down the side of the glass (or over the back of a spoon) to top the cocktail while preserving effervescence. Pour gently to avoid overflow.
Garnish and serve
Garnish with an orange slice on the rim and a maraschino cherry dropped into the glass if desired. Serve immediately while sparkling wine is still fizzy.
