Ingredients For A Virgin Mimosa Recipe
- Lyre's Non-Alcoholic Sparkling Classico - One of the more popular non-alcoholic sparkling wines out there. If you cannot find a nonalcoholic sparkling wine, you can opt for ginger ale, sparkling fruit juice, or lemon-lime soda.
- Fresh Orange Juice - Making your own orange juice will yield the best flavors, but store-bought orange juice works great. On a budget? Try frozen orange juice concentrate! I always have a few in my freezer.
How To Make A Delicious Mimosa Mocktail
- Tilt your champagne flute and fill it with Lyre's Classico about ½ way full. Or measure with your heart on this one.
- Fill the rest of the glass with orange juice.
- Garnish with an orange slice & serve!

Expert Tips For Making The Best Virgin Mimosa Mocktails
- Orange Juice: When choosing a store-bought orange juice, opt for pulp-free for a smooth finish. The best orange juice is the one you love the most. Don't be afraid to give blood oranges a try too!
- Fresh Fruit: Elevate your NA Mimosa game by selecting fresh, vibrant orange fruit juices. Freshly squeezed juices add that extra zing.
- Chill Ingredients & Glasses: Ensure your ingredients are chilled, but don't go overboard. Too much chill can mute the flavors. A slight chill is perfect for keeping things refreshing without sacrificing taste. Chilled champagne glasses will keep your drink cool longer.
- Serve in Style: Use elegant glassware to showcase your creation. The visual appeal enhances the overall drinking experience.
- Experiment with Garnishes: Don't shy away from experimenting with garnishes. Fresh mint leaves, edible flowers, or even a sugar rim can add a touch of flair.
- Timing is Key: Mix your Mimosa just before serving. The effervescence of the sparkling wine is at its peak right after pouring. Letting it sit too long might cause it to lose its sparkle. Enjoy your bubbly drink asap!
- Ratio Matters: Striking the right balance between sparkling wine and juice is crucial. Aim for a ratio that complements your taste preferences – whether you like it a bit tart or on the sweeter side.
Frequently Asked Questions
Sure thing – feel free to experiment with different juices like grapefruit, white grape juice, a splash of pineapple juice or lime juice, and cranberry juice for extra flavor notes! Orange juices that are infused with other fruit juices are just as delicious.
We recommend using a champagne glass for best results, but any wine glass will do too! Try a stemless fluted or wine glass. Take it on the go with to-go wine cups.
Most non-alcoholic spirits are designed to be alcohol-free or contain extremely low levels of alcohol, often less than 0.5% ABV (Alcohol By Volume). However, it's important to note that "non-alcoholic" does not always equate to "100% alcohol-free." The exact content can vary between brands and products.
For individuals who are avoiding alcohol for health, religious, or personal reasons, it's crucial to check the labels and product information of non-alcoholic spirits to ensure they meet the desired standards. Some people may prefer to avoid these products entirely if they are seeking a 100% alcohol-free option, as even trace amounts might be significant for their needs.
When preparing non-alcoholic punches using NA spirits, consider your audience and their specific requirements or preferences regarding alcohol content. If absolute zero alcohol is required, it might be safer to use alternatives like fruit juices, herbal infusions, or syrups that are guaranteed alcohol-free.
