How it’ll make your life easier
This mimosa mocktail fits the bill. It's just 2 ingredients, one of which I've started to keep on hand (orange juice concentrate) and another that I can find at any grocery store-grapefruit soda (Fresca is my fave). It's citrus-y, bubbly, delicious, exciting, and super easy. It's so easy, yet fun that you can make it for yourself on a slow morning (or any time of the day) or serve at a brunch or Easter celebration.
Why I love this recipe
- Sparkling citrus soda
- Orange juice
How to make this mimosa mocktail
This is so easy, pour ⅔ parts Fresca or other citrus soda into a champagne glass
Then add ⅓ part orange juice.
Garnish with a fresh orange slice, or not depending on how much time and effort you have to put into it. This is pretty much a 2 minute drink that's pretty, delicious, and perfect for spring.
Expert tips
Add fresh orange slices to garnish.
FAQ
What bubbly drink to use?
I'd highly recommend using a citrus flavored soda/sparkling water. Fresca is my fave, because it's grapefruit and inexpensive, and bubbly. But you can use whatever you have on hand.
What Orange Juice do I use?
This is 100% up to you, your budget, and what you've got on hand. In a perfect, planned out spring world, I'd probably buy a handful of juicy, ripe oranges and juice them myself. But I'm not the best planner, so I used orange juice concentrate that was already in my freezer. It's easy, inexpensive, and lasts a long time. You can also buy your fave pre-made OJ!
Ways to repurpose these ingredients
- (orange juice) Use it in the dressing of this Spinach Salad with Mandarin Oranges!
- (sparkling soda) Tart Cherry Spritzer (use instead of sparkling water)

I love fresh orange juice with champagne (the British call it buck's fizz) but it's great to have a non-alcoholic version. I'm not sure is Fresca is available here in Italy, but I'll look out for it!
Rebecca says
oh that's a great name! and if it's not, it's just a grapefruit flavored soda, so if you have a grapefruit flavored soda that you like or sparkling water, that will work too!
