I got the idea for this drink after going out to brunch with friends one weekend. I knew as soon as I saw their variation of this mimosa I wanted to create my own. This is how my ombré sunrise mimosas were thought of and then created. If you’re like me then you enjoy more champagne than juice in your mimosas. Ha! I also don’t discriminate on what type of drinkware is used either. From these beautiful champagne flutes to plastic cups, they both get the job done. I recommend using clear no matter which drink ware you prefer.
As with any recipe this recipe can be adjusted to individual taste buds. As I stated above I enjoy more champagne than juice in my ombré sunrise mimosa. Or any mimosa for that matter. However, it may be different for you and those you are making the drink for. I make it a rule of thumb to ask people their ratio preference when making mixed drinks. Especially mimosas because they’re very easy to make and adjust for each individual. There’s no wrong way to enjoy a mimosa! Now let’s get started with the recipe below.
