St. Patrick’s Day is the most excellent occasion to have brunch with friends and family. This cocktail is one you won’t be able to resist on this lucky day. This cocktail is sweet with a twist of citrus flavor. You only need three ingredients to make this quick and easy recipe.

Key Ingredients You’ll Need

Orange Juice: This will add a sweet and citrusy flavor to the cocktail. I like to add a little more or less depending on how sweet I want it.

Alcohol: I like to use champagne and Blue Cointreau, you can use any brand or flavor you prefer.

How To Make Green Mimosa

Step 1. Fill each glass with blue Cointreau. Evenly divide the orange juice and champagne into each glass until almost full.

Step 2. Garnish with fresh orange slices or strawberries if desired. Add a straw and stir gently until combined.
