Christmas Morning Mimosas with Pomegranate

DIY & Crafts

Last year, I impulsively started a new tradition with Corey and his sister – the Christmas Morning Mimosa!

We celebrate Christmas with his family at our house on the 26th and I had to run to the store that morning for some random item we forgot. ⁠

On the way to grab whatever it was, I saw an endcap of cold champagne and realized we NEEDED some mimosas while we cooked!⁠
⁠
I already had orange juice and some pomegranate juice at home. We mixed everything together and Christmas Morning Mimosas were born! ⁠

PS: These are actually a great brunch cocktail year-round!

While a mimosa is traditionally 50% juice & 50% champagne, we went with a ratio that would let us sip them for a few hours while cooking.

We were trying not to risk hurting ourselves, burning down the house, or falling asleep before it was time to eat!

Yield: 8
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Total Time: 5 minutes

This mimosa is perfect for Christmas morning...or any other day of the year!

Ingredients

  • 16 oz Orange Juice
  • 16 oz Pomegranate Juice
  • 16 oz Prosecco, Cava, or Champagne 🍾

Instructions

Mixing 16 ounces each of orange juice, pomegranate juice and champagne will make eight perfect 6 oz mimosas.

Pour the cocktail into champagne flutes and you're done! Easy, right?

It's easy to adjust the recipe up or down, just use equal proportions of all three ingredients and you'll be all set!

If you're not serving a crowd, look for the individual 187ml bottles of Prosecco. Those are equal to 6 ounces, so mixing one of them with 6 oz of Orange Juice and 6 oz of Pomegranate will give you three 6 oz servings or two 9 oz servings.

Notes

If you're serving the mimosas in a pitcher, slice an orange and add some cranberries for a pretty garnish.

When you're feeling extra fancy, you could make some pretty sugared cranberries to really wow your guests!

How Do I Make a Great Pomegranate Mimosa?

What kind of champagne should I use in a mimosa?

Good news – it doesn’t have to be a high-end brand since you’re mixing the Champagne into juice and it will lose anything that makes the higher-end bottles special.

In fact, it doesn’t actually need to be Champagne. Using Prosecco or Cava, which are sparkling wines from Italy or Spain instead of France is a great choice. They tend to be less expensive and taste great paired with juice.

Where do I get pomegranate juice?

If you’re lazy/efficient like us, it’s not directly from a pomegranate! I use POM brand juice, which is often found in the produce section of the grocery store. The smaller bottles are 16 oz, which is perfect for a pitcher of 8 mimosas.

It comes in a variety of flavors, and whichever one sounds the best to you will work. We used the original last year, but I might try the Blueberry Pomegranate this year!

If you can’t find Pom, cranberry juice is a great alternative.

What kind of orange juice should I use in a mimosa?

This is up to personal preference, but I like the No Pulp varieties in cocktails. We look for bottles that are 100% juice & not from concentrate for the freshest taste.

I tend to buy whatever is on sale, but Simply Orange is always a good choice!
