A Mimosa is a cocktail-like drink composed of one part champagne (or other sparkling wine) and one part thoroughly chilled orange juice. It is traditionally served in a tall champagne flute with a morning brunch as hair of the dog or to guests at weddings. A Buck's Fizz is a similar cocktail, albeit with a 2:1 ratio of orange juice to champagne.
