When I was little, sometimes on weekend mornings my mother would serve us orange juice in fancy champagne flutes or wine glasses and it always made my Fruity Pebbles seem so much more enjoyable. Tastes have changed a little (not much), I now enjoy coffee more than juice but there are the mornings when all the caffeine in the world just won't get a smile on my face and in that case I go back to my juice in wine glasses with a little something....Prosecco. Love my Mimosas!
Mimosas
1 bottle of Prosecco (or Brut Champagne)
25 ounces of Orange Juice (little under 1/4 gallon)
Pour and mix together in a large pitcher. I use a half-and half ratio but you can always go with less OJ and more Prosecco. Traditionally served in champagne flutes; in our house it's the white wine glasses.
Prosecco is an Italian wine...superb in almost any cocktail.

I like Prosecco better than Champagne in Mimosas too! It seems, to me anyway, better quality can be had for less money this way. Especially for mixing with OJ!
ReplyDeleteDid you see the geletin dessert that Giada made with Prosecco? I noticed you made the ravioli from her...I was watching a lot of FN when I was expecting and first had my son (3 1/2 years ago already!), and that was one thing that I always meant to try and forgot about until just now...
