Why You’ll Love This Recipe

• These pineapple mimosas are the perfect brunch cocktail to serve for a fancy, celebratory brunch or party. 
• They are easy to make with fresh pineapple juice, or using store bought pineapple nectar to save time.
• It’s a simple 2 ingredient cocktail recipe that anyone can make.

Ingredients

• Pineapple Juice: For the best flavor, use fresh pineapple juice made by juicing pineapples. As an easy alternative, you can use a high quality store bought pineapple juice.
• Champagne: Real mimosas are made with champagne. However, you can easily use prosecco or cava as a much cheaper alternative.

Equipment

• If you want to use fresh pineapple juice, a juicer is the easiest way to make it. You can also make pineapple juice with a blender and strainer.
• For serving the mimosas, use champagne flutes or similar cocktail glasses.

Step By Step Instructions

Step 1: Add the champagne to the champagne flute.

Step 2: Top with the fresh pineapple juice and serve.

Variations

There are lots of ways to add in other flavors to these pineapple mimosas. Here are some ideas:

• Strawberry Pineapple Mimosa: For a fruity twist, add in 1 to 2 tablespoons of homemade strawberry simple syrup.
• Coconut Malibu Pineapple Mimosa: Make this pineapple mimosa with ½ oz malibu rum. Then, top off the mimosa with 1 to 2 tablespoons of coconut milk.
• Pineapple Orange Mimosa: Replace half of the pineapple juice with freshly squeezed orange juice.

Expert Tips

• Pour the champagne first. Add the champagne to the glass before the pineapple juice. This allows the cocktail to mix on its own and prevents it from bubbling over. 
• Tip the glass as you pour the champagne. This helps stop the champagne from fizzing up and helps keep the champagne extra bubbly.
• Serve the mimosas immediately. Mimosas are best served as soon as they are poured. The longer they sit, the flatter they will get.
• Add garnish. If you are serving this cocktail at a party, add mini pineapple slices as garnish.
