A simple and vibrant mimosa bar featuring fresh fruit purees and sparkling wine, perfect for celebrations and easy to customize for all guests.

Ingredients

  • Fresh strawberries, hulled and quartered
  • Fresh mango, peeled and diced
  • Fresh raspberries
  • Fresh orange juice, freshly squeezed
  • Fresh pineapple chunks (optional)
  • Honey or agave syrup (optional)
  • Fresh lemon juice (optional)
  • Chilled sparkling wine (champagne, prosecco, or cava)
  • Chilled sparkling water or club soda (for non-alcoholic options)
  • Fresh mint leaves or basil (for garnish)
  • Fresh fruit slices (orange wheels, strawberry halves, or raspberries for garnish)
  • Ice cubes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Fruit Purees (15-20 minutes): Rinse and prepare your fresh fruits. Add each fruit variety separately into the blender (about 2 cups or 300 grams per batch). Blend until smooth. For raspberries or strawberries, strain the puree through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds if desired. Taste each puree and add honey or agave syrup in small increments (start with 1 teaspoon) if you want extra sweetness. Stir in a splash of fresh lemon juice to brighten the flavors if needed.
  2. Chill the Purees: Transfer each fruit puree into separate pitchers or bowls. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to keep them cool and fresh. If short on time, add a few ice cubes to chill quickly but avoid diluting the puree.
  3. Set Up the Mimosa Bar: Arrange the chilled fruit purees on a table along with chilled sparkling wine or prosecco bottles, sparkling water for non-alcoholic options, fresh fruit slices, mint leaves, and champagne flutes. Provide spoons or ladles for each puree.
  4. Mixing the Mimosas: To build a mimosa, pour about 2 ounces (60 ml) of fruit puree into a flute. Top with 4 ounces (120 ml) of sparkling wine or sparkling water. Gently stir if needed. Garnish with fresh fruit or mint.
  5. Troubleshooting: If any puree tastes too thick, thin it with a splash of water or fresh fruit juice. Avoid pouring sparkling wine directly into the blender to preserve bubbles. Keep purees cold to maintain freshness and vivid color during your celebration.

Notes

Prepare fruit purees ahead of time and refrigerate to reduce stress on event day. Use ripe fresh fruit for best flavor and color. Strain purees for smoother texture if desired. Keep sparkling wine chilled until serving to maintain bubbles. Avoid blending sparkling wine to preserve fizz. Garnish with fresh fruit or herbs for visual appeal.
