How to make the mimosa cocktail
- This cocktail is the favorite of the British royal house , the fireproof Queen Elizabeth II drinks it before going to sleep in bed. It is not surprising that it has gained popularity in the Anglo-Saxon world, although as in Spain it is not prepared in any corner of the world.
- Spain is the country that produces the best oranges on the planet . A national jewel that we cannot stop trying, not only in this cocktail, but as a dessert or part of a healthy breakfast.
- The first step for us to prepare one of the best cocktails in the world is to squeeze the juice . We need the same amount of cava as orange juice to achieve the perfect result, a luxury drink.
- With the orange already squeezed, we are going to mix it with the other protagonist , the cava. A semi dry will be perfect, although we can always try with any other type of sparkling drink that we have at home.
- Both ingredients, the juice and the cava are what will give this cocktail grace, although it will be missing the extra point, the Gran Marnier or triple dry liqueur.
- The Gran Marnier is a mixture of cognac with orange liqueur . A type of drink that we can serve with ice, it is delicious by itself. It is also used for coffee or certain desserts, in this case it will be the base of our mimosa cocktail.
- To finish giving the finish that every cocktail needs, we add the ice. This element will keep the drink at the proper temperature. Cava is never drunk hot and neither can this cocktail, it must be very cold.
- We can accompany it with a little fruit , strawberries or any other, it will come in handy. The mimosa cocktail is one of those that never fails for brunch or any dinner or tapas meal.
