A fun and easy DIY mimosa bar featuring fresh tropical juices and sparkling wine, perfect for brunch gatherings and celebrations. Customize with a variety of juices and fresh fruit garnishes for a colorful, refreshing experience.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 750 ml chilled sparkling wine or champagne (Korbel, La Marca, Prosecco, or your favorite brand)
  • 2 cups fresh orange juice (preferably freshly squeezed)
  • 1Β½ cups mango juice (100% juice, no added sugar)
  • 1 cup passion fruit juice (bottled or fresh)
  • 1 cup guava juice (optional)
  • 1 cup pineapple juice (fresh or canned)
  • Fresh fruit garnishes: sliced strawberries, orange wheels, pineapple chunks, mint sprigs
  • Ice cubes (optional, served separately)

Instructions

  1. Chill your sparkling wine and juices for at least 2 hours before brunch to keep everything crisp and refreshing.
  2. Prepare fresh fruit garnishes by slicing strawberries, orange wheels, and pineapple chunks about 30 minutes before serving. Arrange them on small plates or bowls.
  3. Pour each tropical juice into separate clear pitchers. Label them if desired.
  4. Arrange the mimosa bar by placing sparkling wine bottles in an ice bucket or cooler to keep chilled. Set up juice pitchers, glassware, garnishes, and stirrers on the table or counter.
  5. Guide guests to fill glasses about one-third with juice, then top off with sparkling wine slowly to avoid overflow.
  6. Let guests add garnishes like fruit slices or mint sprigs to personalize their mimosas and enjoy.

Notes

Keep sparkling wine and juices cold to maintain bubbles. Pour sparkling wine last and slowly to avoid overflow. Prepare garnishes and chill juices ahead of time for easy setup. For non-alcoholic versions, substitute sparkling wine with sparkling water or non-alcoholic sparkling cider.
