Blood Orange Bubbly (or Mimosa)
By Maralyn Hill and Brenda Hill ‘The Tandem Tasters’
Ingredients
1/2 sparkling wine (or more to taste)
1/2 fresh blood orange juice (we like Italian Volcano Blood Orange Juice)
Method
Pour chilled juice and wine into a frosted flute glass.
Serve over ice if you wish. No garnish needed.
This healthful summer celebration is the shade of a summer sunset. We like it on its own on a warm afternoon. For summer brunch, we serve this cocktail with cheese, quiche, pear and pecan salad, or chilled fruit soup.
