How to Make a Virgin Mimosa Mocktail

Making a virgin mimosa is as easy as pouring and mixing. Freshly squeezed orange juice works best and will give your drink the most flavor. Mix that OJ with some lemonade and top the pitcher with some sprite.

Lemon-lime flavored sparkling water works too- you just want to get those tasty bubbles in! You can even use ginger ale with fresh lemon and lime juice mixed in.

We garnish our mimosas with a sugared rim to make them even sweeter. It also makes the drink picture perfect and worthy of a fancy breakfast.

So skip the basic orange juice and add a little fizz to your morning with this tasty non alcoholic mimosa. It will make your day perfect, we promise!
