Mango-Boysenberry Mimosa

Brunch drinks get updated with this take on the traditional duo of orange juice and champagne. Note that freshly squeezed orange juice is not the best choice here, as its intense taste can overwhelm the other juices. Topping the drink with a boysenberry "floater" creates a vibrant color contrast.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    10 servings

Ingredients

2 cups frozen unsweetened boysenberry, thawed
2 tablespoons sugar
3 cups chilled orange juice (do not use freshly squeezed)
1 1/2 cups frozen orange-peach-mango juice concentrate
1 750-ml bottle of chilled dry champagne
10 small orange slices

    Step 2

    Whisk orange juice and concentrate in pitcher to blend. Mix in champagne. Divide mimosa among 10 champagne glasses. Drizzle 1 1/2 teaspoons berry purée over each. Garnish with orange slices and reserved berries.
