A quick and easy cocktail these Christmas Mimosas are a fun drink that you can sip on at holiday parties, around the fire or at dinner time.
I love making simple and easy drinks over the holidays! Thesee Christmas Mimosas are one of the, with minimal ingredients they take no time to whip up at all.
The flavor combination of everything together is absolutely delicious as well. Cranberry Apple Juice paired with Prosecco? Yum!
This is such an easy drink and super tasty as well. It is one of my signature drinks that I like to sip on around the holidays, I’m a huge cranberry juice fan.
But I wanted to give this a little more depth of flavor and added an apple aspect to it as well, add some apples, cranberries a cinnamon stick and you’re good.
The cinnamon slightly infuses with the drink and just gives the slightest bit of cinnamon taste that is absolutely amazing, but this is completely optional!
I’m going to say that this is one of my favorite drinks, not only because it is simple but it tastes so fresh, has a little tart and sweetness to it!
Those are all things I enjoy when it comes to something I’m going to be sipping on. Some of the best drinks don’t have a whole bunch of ingredients!

HOW TO MAKE A CHRISTMAS MIMOSA, STEP BY STEP:

- Fill the glass the rest of the way with the cranberry apple juice, leaving room for garnishes.
- Add fresh cranberries, a rosemary sprig, and cinnamon sticks to the glass and serve.
WHAT KIND OF PROSECCO IS THE BEST?
We do not have a brand preference on this one. There are three different types of Proseccos – sparkling, semi-sparkling and still.
We prefer the sparkling because it gives the most fizz and bubbly taste. Also there are different colors like rose, you do not want to use that just use a plain regular prosecco.
CAN I MAKE THIS NON-ALCOHOLIC?
Absolutely! We do this a lot actually, we like to make this into a mocktail for people who don’t drink and if any kids want a sparkling juice version.
To make it non-alcoholic just swap out the prosecco with sparkling apple juice. You’ll still get that bubbly fizz and you can have a delicious flavor.
You can switch to just plain cranberry juice since the sparkling juice is apple if you want a more subtle apple flavor.
HOW TO STORE:
I do not recommend storing this, this is a make as you go type of drink. So keep everything in the refrigerator until ready to make a cocktail.
TIPS AND TRICKS:
- The ratio of the drink should be 50/50.
- A bottle of prosecco makes about 7-8 drinks depending on the glass.
- You can use regular cranberry juice if you do not want the apple flavor.
- This can be made non-alcoholic, see my tips above.
- Garnish as you wish, the cinnamon stick give a slight cinnamon flavor to the drink.
