Skip the orange juice and make a Pineapple Mimosa instead! The sweet juice with your favorite champagne are a perfect combo to make brunch feel like you’re in the tropics.

I had my first pineapple mimosa a few years ago when we went to Maui. We took a snorkeling trip with Trilogy (of the famous cinnamon rolls) and they offer pineapple mimosas on the sail home. I’d never been a mimosa person until I tried that pineapple mimosa. Now whenever we host brunch pineapple juice is always on my mimosa bar.

You can really make mimosas any way; I’ve done them Hawaiian, Cranberry, and with pineapple and orange juice, but there’s something about the tart and sweet acidity of the pineapple juice mixed with the champagne: It’s a tropical mimosa that is so much better than the orange juice kind!

2 Ingredient Pineapple Mimosas

  • When choosing a champagne for mimosas, choose a brut or extra brut, or use prosecco or cava.
  • Pineapple juice is usually sold in cans in the juice aisle.

Dorothy’s Testing Notes

  • I suggest you buy the mini single serve cans of pineapple juice. They come in packs of 6. The large 32ounce cans of pineapple juice are going to be way too much unless you’re making lots of cocktails.
  • Be sure to chill the champagne and the juice.
  • Trick for opening a bottle of champagne: place a kitchen towel over the top and twist the bottle NOT the cork slowly until the cork pops out.

  2. I forgot to add sparkling Bloody Marys! Those are a treat if you make your own BM mix from scratch, I mean like serious scratch like starting with tomato paste so I can control the sodium content (we’re not spring chickens anymore but we like to have fun and stay healthy!) At this rate, food might be an afterthought. No, we will have serious brunch food!

  3. I love bubbly and mixing it with juice is so me! Pineapple by itself or along with OJ, add some cran or pomegranate for color, float a slice of kiwi on top, try with mango or a combo of tropical juices…you can’t go wrong! I’ve been thinking of hosting a brunch and having a mimosa bar so my guests can create their own. That sounds like fun and something I should organize soon now that the holidays are over and January doesn’t really have anything going. It’ll break up the winter doldrums! Lol! I need to get working on that brunch menu…

    Thanks!
