Mimosa
Buck's Fizz (UK)
المكونات
- Champagne Chilled
- Orange juice 2 oz
التعليمات
Ensure both ingredients are well chilled, then mix into the glass. Serve cold.
The Mimosa is an elegant brunch classic made with equal parts chilled Champagne and fresh orange juice, served in a Champagne flute. Also known as Buck's Fizz in the UK, it is celebrated for its simplicity and refreshing effervescence. The IBA recognises it as a Contemporary Classic, cementing its status in cocktail culture worldwide.
History & Origins
The Mimosa is credited to Frank Meier, head bartender at the Ritz Hotel in Paris, who reportedly created it around 1925. The similar Buck's Fizz was created at the Buck's Club in London in 1921, predating the Mimosa by a few years, and the relationship between the two recipes is disputed. Both drinks became firmly embedded in brunch culture throughout the 20th century.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: Bright citrus and yeasty Champagne bubbles. Palate: Lively and refreshing with sweet orange juice softening the crisp, dry acidity of the Champagne. Finish: Clean and effervescent with a pleasant citrus brightness.
Pro Tip
Ensure both the Champagne and orange juice are well chilled before combining, and pour the Champagne first to preserve as much effervescence as possible.
