Amimosa cocktail is composed of champagne (or other sparkling wine) and chilled citrus juice, usually orange juice unless otherwise specified. It is often served in a tall champagne fluteatbrunch, at weddings, or as part of business or first class service on some passenger railways and airlines.[1] The mixing ratio of the "classic mimosa" differs based on the source.[2][3]
The cocktail is named after the yellow-flowered mimosa plant, Acacia dealbata.[4] The origin story of the cocktail is a matter of debate. This cocktail was used in Spain centuries ago, especially in the East, where orange and sparkling wines (cava and others) are typical, namely in Valencia, Castellón, Alicante or Catalonia.[citation needed]
Buck's Fizz is a similar cocktail, invented in 1921 in London. It is made using twice as much champagne as orange juice.[5]
The Poinsettia is cranberry juice with champagne (sometimes with vodka and/or Cointreau).
The Lemosa is lemonade with champagne, with a small amount of blueberry syrup.[6]
The Vermosa is apple cider with champagne, notably served in Vermont, USA.[7] Apple cider with champagne and brandy is called an Apple Crisp.[8]
The Flirtini is made with pineapple juice, champagne and vodka.[9]
The Megmosa[10][11] is a similar type of cocktail, composed of equal parts champagne and grapefruit juice.
