Blood Orange Mimosa

Last week I told you about buying some blood oranges from the market. They were amazing!  Over the the weekend I was slicing some up for my son when I got to thinking that a blood orange mimosa would be perfect for an Easter brunch or when ever really. So I made myself one…But these oranges were so pretty, I couldn't stop photographing the fruit. Gosh, I'm so weird.To prepare a blood orange mimosa you'll need

Prosecco or other sparkling white wine (or champagne) well chilled.Juice from fresh blood oranges. I like mine with the pulp but if you don't then use a strainer.Sugar. If your oranges are on the tart side mix in a bit of sugar to taste. (optional)Orange liquer (optional)

Combine fresh blood orange juice with sugar and orange liqueur  if you're using these ingredients. in a large measuring cup and stir to combine.  To serve, pour the blood orange juice into the bottom of Champagne glasses until about half full, top off with Prosecco.

Enjoy!
