What Type of Glass Should You Use for a Mimosa?

No garden party or brunch get-together is complete without a mimosa. This sweet-tasting beverage, which pairs champagne and orange juice, is quick to make and can impress your party guests. Whether you're making traditional mimosas or putting a twist on this drink with cranberry juice or pineapple juice, one standard type of glass is suitable.

Use Champagne Flutes

  • Mimosas are traditionally served in champagne flutes. Using this type of glass can help you avoid having to carefully measure your drink's ingredients. A standard approach is to fill two-thirds of the glass with champagne, and then top the rest of the glass with orange juice. A splash of grenadine or Grand Marnier can help give a boost of color and flavor to the drink.
