Itโs easy to drink, easy to make and easy to share with friends and family no matter what time of year.
There are some recipes that just feel like they should be served and drunk in the morning. And a Ginger Beer Mimosa is one of those. So if youโre looking for the perfect breakfast cocktail, this is it!
Ingredients
Look for a pulp-free orange juice to use unless you donโt mind the extra texture.
I love Reedโs Ginger Beer. Itโs not overly sweet and has a nice ginger bite. I donโt think that ginger ale is a good substitution because itโs much sweeter.
You can use any champagne or sparkling wine you prefer. It doesnโt need to be expensive but you should like the flavor of it when sipped on its own.
How to Make a Mule Mimosa
Step 1
Add ice to a copper Moscow Mule mug.
Add the orange juice.
Step 2
Add the ginger beer.
Step 3
Top with champagne.
Everyone has a certain way that they like their mimosas. I like mine with just a splash of orange juice.
The orange juice flavor in this cocktail is to my liking, on the subtle side, but if you like to really taste the orange juice just add more.
The addition of ginger beer changes the flavor of the champagne just enough to make it feel different. (And I love how ginger tastes with champagne).
But you still get all that bubbly goodness.
If youโre looking for the perfect breakfast cocktail to serve, make this yummy and super easy Moscow Mule Mimosa!
I served mine over ice in a copper mug, but you could also make this and serve it in a champagne flute or wine glass. (Or whatever glass you want).
Ways to make it your own
Add another flavor, like grenadine and turn it into a sunrise mimosa! If youโve ever had my Vodka Sunrise, you know that cherry and orange juice goes really well together.
Make it more like a traditional Moscow Mule and add 1-2 ounces of vodka and some fresh mint.
Skip the orange juice and try using grapefruit instead. Itโs tangy and slightly bitter. Or try a tropical juice blend. Both of those flavors would be great with ginger beer.
You can enhance the ginger flavor even more by adding ginger liqueur or ginger syrup.
