The image shows a tall clear glass filled with a bright orange-yellow drink with a thick frothy foam layer being poured from a dark bottle, placed centrally on a white marbled texture. To the left, there is a clear glass bottle filled halfway with the same orange liquid, next to a fresh orange wedge. On the right side, another tall clear glass contains the orange drink and is garnished with a red strawberry on the rim. In front, a small white bowl holds several fresh red strawberries, with one strawberry lying next to it. The entire scene is set on a red cloth with a soft textured pale pink wall in the background. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

5 fluid ounces MARTINI Asti
1 Orange
1 Fresh Strawberry

Instructions

Step 1: Into a champagne flute, slowly pour 5 fluid ounces of MARTINI Asti, pausing as needed to prevent it from bubbling over.
Step 2: Top off the glass with freshly squeezed orange juice from the Orange.
Step 3: Cut a small slit in the fresh Strawberry and place it on the rim of the glass as a garnish.
Step 4: Serve immediately to enjoy the cocktail at its freshest.

Tips & Variations

For a sweeter Mimosa, select a ripe, juicy orange and consider adding a splash of simple syrup if desired.
Replace the strawberry with a twist of orange peel or a raspberry for a different garnish and subtle flavor change.
Chill both the MARTINI Asti and orange juice beforehand to keep the drink perfectly cold without diluting it with ice.

Storage

Mimosas are best enjoyed fresh and should be served immediately after preparation. If you need to prepare ahead, keep the MARTINI Asti and orange juice refrigerated separately. Mixed Mimosas stored in the fridge may lose carbonation and flavor within a few hours.
