Description:
A Mimosa is a cocktail-like drink composed of three parts champagne and two parts thoroughly chilled orange juice, traditionally served in a tall champagne flute with a morning brunch. It is also often served to early guests at weddings, and in first class on jet airliners.
Grenadine and a cherry can be added for extra color.
The Mimosa was reportedly invented at the Ritz Hotel in Paris, France circa 1925. Orangina or a tablespoon of Grand Marnier (technically a Grand Mimosa) are sometimes added. A similar (and often identical) British cocktail is called a bucks fizz.
