frosty strawberry mimosas recipe - featured image

A quick and easy homemade brunch drink blending fresh strawberries with sparkling wine for a frosty, refreshing mimosa perfect for any casual gathering.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 1 bottle (750 ml) sparkling wine or champagne, chilled
  • 2 tablespoons simple syrup (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 to 1.5 cups ice cubes
  • Optional garnishes: whole strawberries or lemon slices

Instructions

  1. Rinse and hull about 1 cup of fresh strawberries, then slice them roughly.
  2. Make simple syrup if using homemade: combine ½ cup sugar and ½ cup water in a small saucepan over medium heat, stir until sugar dissolves, then cool completely.
  3. In a blender, add sliced strawberries, 1 to 1.5 cups ice cubes, 2 tablespoons simple syrup, and 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice. Pulse until smooth and slushy, about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add a splash of sparkling wine or water if mixture is too thick.
  4. Slowly pour about 4 ounces (120 ml) of chilled sparkling wine into the blender. Gently pulse once or twice to combine without losing fizz.
  5. Pour the frosty strawberry mimosa into chilled champagne flutes or tall glasses. Garnish with a whole strawberry or lemon slice on the rim and serve immediately.

Notes

Use very cold ingredients to maintain frosty texture and bubbles. Add sparkling wine last and pulse gently to avoid flattening. Use fresh solid ice cubes for best texture. Taste and adjust sweetness gradually. Serve immediately for best flavor and fizz. The strawberry base can be prepared up to 24 hours ahead and refrigerated; add sparkling wine just before serving.
