Why This Recipe Works
The magic lies in the perfect balance of sweet and tart flavors. Fresh strawberry juice provides natural sweetness without being cloying, while lemonade adds that essential acidic brightness that makes mimosas so refreshing. The sparkling wine ties everything together with effervescent sophistication. Unlike heavily sweetened cocktails, this mimosa maintains a light, drinkable quality that pairs beautifully with brunch fare.
The large-batch approach means you can focus on your guests instead of playing bartender all morning. The strawberry and lemonade base can even be prepared the night before, making morning assembly a breeze.
Ingredients
- Fresh strawberries for garnish – Optional decoration that enhances presentation
- Sparkling wine – Provides the signature bubbles and alcohol base for the cocktail, I would suggest a sweet prosecco, cava, or other sparkling wine

Please tell me how you juice the strawberries in a juicer. I’m not sure I can picture that. I have an electric juicer and I cannot imagine. Please help.
I have a Breville juicer, I washed the strawberries, cored them, removed the green leaves, and simply dropped them into the juicer. Does that hep?
I tried traditional mimosa (made with prosecco and orange juice) and it was delicious. Now I can’t wait to try strawberry one. Personally would never go for strawberry nectar though. I feel that processed ingredient would spoil the idea of refreshing drink. Whenever I buy berries of any sort I take them out of the plastic container and line the container with paper towels then I place berries back in. They last in good shape longer. In this case it means I will be able to enjoy mimosas over and over again.
