Hey YA! Happy Day! Guess what time it is? It’s time for a really good Easter brunch snack. Make your Mama proud and prepare these gorgeous MOMosas for her. Errr! Mimosas. Sunrise Mimosas.

These easy to make, 4-ingredient mimosas are a delicious beverage to add to a weekend brunch. Plus, you only need a few minutes to whip them up.

While this recipe is super simple, you’ll want to take your time to get those details just right. I might be exaggerating a bit—it’s not as tricky as I make it sound, but I’m a bit of a drama queen. Forgive me!

Recipe Ingredients

Who else loves mangoes more than any other fruit in the world? Please stand up! Because I’m standing with you. Guys, I buy bags of chopped mangoes (too lazy to cut it myself) and snack on bowls of it thrice a day or add it to my guacamole. No joke. I love it *this much*, and that’s why I also included it in our Sunrise Mimosa. This tropical twist makes the classic mimosa even more tasty and refreshing.

• Mango: As stated, I love some mangoes, but this mimosa is great with peaches and citrus, too, as in my mimosa cocktail recipe.
• Orange Juice: Provides a fresh, citrusy base that complements the mango and balances the sweetness. Substitute with pineapple juice for a different twist.
• Prosecco: This is a sparkling wine that adds a refreshing, bubbly element. Any sparkling wine or champagne will work.
• Pomegranate Liqueur: Adds a rich, fruity depth and a beautiful color contrast. Grenadine can be used for a similar effect.
• Orange Slices or Mandarin Slices (for garnish): I use these for presentation but you can leave them out.

How To Make Sunrise Mimosas

Here’s what’s up. We’re making a puree of mangoes with orange juice. The first time I made it, the puree didn’t even make it to the champagne flutes. I literally picked up the blender and drank it all straight from the jar. ’twas ah.may.zing. But! The next step is even better because that mango concoction meets up with a bottle of Prosecco. Checkit:

1. Combine mango and orange juice in a blender and puree: This step creates the flavorful base for the mimosa.
2. Pour a few tablespoons of puree into chilled champagne flutes.
3. Slowly pour prosecco over the mango puree almost to the top of the flutes: Pouring the prosecco slowly helps maintain its bubbly effervescence.
4. Slowly add pomegranate liqueur to each champagne glass.
5. Garnish the glasses with orange slices and serve immediately.

Serving Suggestions

A bubbly, crisp taste paired with a nice balance of orange juice is all that you will need to complete a beautifully elegant brunch. Then again, elegance will most likely go out the door after a few sips, but who cares! You deserve it!

To make your brunch even more amazing, pair the sunrise mimosas with several brunch items, like an ambrosia salad, a savory spinach quiche, and a smoked salmon dip. I also love my avocado toast alongside slices of sheet pan eggs or eggs Halifax.

An assortment of pastries such as croissants, banana muffins, and scones adds a sweet touch, while a charcuterie board with a selection of cheeses, cured meats, nuts, and crackers rounds out the meal.
