IT WAS REALLY SHADY OF YOU NOT INCLUDING CHRIS-NOT EVEN A MENTION OR A PICTURE-IN YOUR 25th Anniversary episode!!!
I honestly think that Champagne is too yeasty for Mimosas. I vote for Prosecco all the way! Whatever you use, the sparkling wine MUST be COLD!! The last few times that I've been served single servings of Prosecco, it's been barely cool to room temperature. Yuck!
Up the anti by using Naked juice or bolthouse farms.
They have more than just OJ, and brunch will never be the same.
Nah… will pass on this one. Think I would like it better without the sparkling wine
This is honestly the most embarrassingly bad video I've seen on your channel … I'm literally cringing for you watching it. Yuck.

They must pay pretty good to be able to afford a bottle like that of Grand Marnier.
Many fruit liqueur added will also work. I think it is fun to add peach, or cassis, or raspberry, or strawberry liqueur .😋😋😋
"… have to measure or they turn out terrible!" proceeds to just guesstimate the amount of prosecco.
The secret to opening bubbly is hold the cork, turn the bottle.
So you think that Prosecco and Cava are of lower quality just because they're not French? 😂 There's no limit …
Mocktail version please😊
The orange liquor is a great addition. Thank you.
Cheers 🥂
I always look forward to your videos! Everything I make turns out absolutely wonderful!
Love it! Great tips. Thanks, Julia 🥂
It is not only not necessary to use the best quality champagne when making mimosas but it is a requirement to use a more budget-friendly option. The finest champagnes have so much effort that goes into creating the perfect balance, those tiny bubbles etc that it is disrespectful to the heritage of Champagne to dump even the best quality orange juice on it. All fine nuances are lost. Buy and drink the best champagne you can when drinking it straight. When you are making an assertively flavoured mixed drink, use prosecco, cava or any champagne-style wine. Also, people in the bar and restaurant industry see people who order Dom and OJ as ballers with a tax refund cheque.

I’ll drink with anyone from ATK ANY DAY!!!
And if you don’t like orange juice then you can have champagne or Prosecco and add a little Crème de Cassis. Delicious!
