A good Apple Cider Mimosa Recipe can cure all woes. That’s the best thing about Mimosas.
I love Mimosas. I love the simplicity. They’re the perfect way to celebrate, start a day, of just unwind. Nothing a little bubbly can’t fix. I also love Apple Cider! I’ve used it in two of my all-time favorite cocktails, Apple Pie Punch and Apple Pie Sangria. For some reason, I never considered blending the two! Once I first sipped this Apple Cider Mimosa I knew I had a new favorite simple cocktail recipe. We have been making it at Thanksgiving celebrations ever since!
Apple Cider Mimosas…the perfect cocktail!
How do you make an Apple Cider Mimosa?
You only need two ingredients to make these little beauties; CHAMPAGNE, and APPLE CIDER. It’s not rocket science. I can’t believe it took me so long to try it! Such a success. This is a new favorite! You can garnish the rim with caramel, sprinkles, cinnamon sugar, or anything you love. Such a fun and creative spin on the Classic Mimosa.
The holidays, Thanksgiving and Christmas, are such a busy time of year. Let’s make things easier with this Mimosa Recipe.
The next couple months are going to be SO busy. The holidays are a foodies best and busiest time of year. I can’t wait for all the celebrating, baking, family time, and let’s not forget EATING…but first, a cocktail. A delicious and simple cocktail. No better way to unwind than to pop some bubbly and pour over apple cider. Apple Cider Mimosas for the WIN!
What is the best champagne for mimosas?
Normally I will go with a mid-range champagne for mimosas; in the $15-$25 range. I hardly ever spend more than that. When making champagne cocktails you are mixing the champagne with juice or other alcohol so there’s no reason to splurge too much on just the champagne. A mid range version will do just fine.
If you have a favorite, always use that. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it! Some of our other mimosas are our Sherbet Mimosas, Moscow Mule Mimosas, and Tropical Mimosas.
This Apple Cider Mimosa Recipe is one of my very favorites on the site. I hope you enjoy and it graces your holiday tables with grace! We love to serve these fun mimosas with breakfast and brunch recipes such as Bacon Pancakes, Breakfast Pizza, Cheesy Breakfast Sliders, Ham and Cheese Breakfast Casserole, and our Cinnamon Roll French Toast Bake. The ultimate combo!!!

I have made these BUT instead of dipping glass in water I have used both the cider and the CHAMPAGNE to moisten the rim
Becky Hardin
I absolutely love that idea!

These looking amazing!!! What brand of apple cider did you use and did you use spiced apple cider or just plain?
