Mimosa Cocktail...
So cheers 🎉 my friends to another year here at AFCJ and the perfect way to celebrate is with a classic Mimosa cocktail.
And this drink is a great choice for sooo many reasons....
The Mimosa Cocktail is...
• Light, flavorful & easy to prepare
• Made with a sparkling wine so perfect for celebrations
• Can be made with only 2 ingredients or...
• Garnished with cranberries & cinnamon sticks
And if you've never had a Mimosa then I think you'll want to try this just for the flavor and the ease of preparing.
Since I'm sure after a busy Holiday season you could really appreciate a New Years Eve that's relaxing and includes a couple light drinks and appetizers .
Yesss please... my kinda evening 😉
So whether you celebrate big or just stay in for the night these Mimosa cocktails with cinnamon sticks & cranberries could be just what you're looking for.
Tips for making the perfect Mimosa cocktail drink:
Chill your sparkling wine or champagne prior to making Mimosas
Use a good quality orange juice or even fresh squeezed
Pour the bubbly in the glasses first before adding juice
Appetizers you can serve for New Years or Entertaining:

Lovely serving platter used for the drinks was a nice Christmas gift this year (2016) from my daughter Sam... and my grandson Brenden was so super excited to give it to me.. XXOO ❤
CHEERS 🥂
Hope you all have a safe and HAPPY NEW YEAR 🎉!!!
Until next time- xoxo

Sipping on mimosas is a favorite addition to a brunch menu. Love how easy it is to turn a meal pretty and festive with an easy cocktail. I haven't tried adding cinnamon. It sounds wonderful!!
Perfect timing! I've got a whole bottle of leftover champagne!
Yup..It would be great with a nice brunch 🙂
You're welcome Elaine!
I love mimosas! I've never thought of putting cinnamon in them. Yummy!! Thanks for the recipe.
It's a health drink. That's what I'm going to tell myself next Sunday brunch-) I love the cinnamon idea. The cranberry garnish is really nice too.
Thanks! And yes it is. Orange juice and cinnamon are sooo good for you 🙂
