2-Ingredient Cranberry Mimosa Recipe (Poinsettia Cocktail)
A cranberry mimosa (also called a Poinsettia cocktail or Christmas Mimosa) is a cranberry lover's version of the standard mimosa – tart cranberries pair perfectly with a sugar-rimmed glass and sparkling champagne bubbles. Two main ingredients and they're ready in 5 minutes! Serve alongside your favorite Thanksgiving and Christmas dishes.
Julie said: “So easy! This is my go-to drink when people come over now and it's always a hit. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“
I'm going to get right to the point – this drink right here will make you extra grateful at Thanksgiving, and lend itself to a holly jolly Christmas!
My husband's aunt asks me to make these for every holiday gathering, and it's become the cocktail that all my friends make sure they have ingredients for (all two of them) if I'm going to be at their party. Is that not the cutest and most delicious legacy?
Say hello to the Cranberry Mimosa. You might also hear these called Poinsettias, which is adorable.
I know some people don't care for orange juice, but that doesn't mean they should have to forfeit mimosas at brunch. These cranberry Christmas cocktails are more than suitable as a holiday party cocktail!
The tartness of the cranberry juice pairs perfectly with the sparkling bubbles. This 2-ingredient prosecco cocktail is a glass full of holiday cheer!
Cranberry mimosa ingredients
When you're talking about a classic mimosa recipe, the ingredients are:
- Sparkling wine (champagne or prosecco)
- Orange juice
- Optionally, some recipes call for Grand Marnier
But for a cranberry mimosa recipe, you'll want:
- Sparkling wine (champagne or prosecco)
- Cranberry juice (not cranberry juice cocktail!)
- Orange liqueur like Grand Marnier or Cointreau triple sec – completely optional. I don't add it myself, but others enjoy it!
How to make the best cranberry mimosas
- Use cold ingredients. Make sure both your cranberry juice and champagne are chilled, and keep any you don't use in the fridge until people inevitably ask for seconds!
- Serve in champagne flutes. They're designed to retain the bubbles. And if you're looking to make these for a crowd this holiday and don't want to worry about people breaking your nice champagne flutes, I highly recommend these disposable recyclable ones that come in a set of 12 (aff link). They're super cheap, no dishes to worry about, and they hold the alcohol which is really the most important piece. And you can get them with or without stems!
- Garnish the rims. I love to rim each glass with sugar – King Arthur Flour Sparkling White Sugar (aff link), to be exact. It's the only kind of sugar that I like to use as a garnish anymore. It's perfect to rim cocktail glasses, and to sprinkle on baked goods. Just add a little water around the rim of the glass, then dip in the sugar.
- Add more garnish! Since we're talking garnish, I also love adding a sprig of fresh rosemary, or a few fresh cranberries to each glass. It's not only a beautiful garnish, it's a snack! And if you pop them in the freezer, they'll help keep your drink cold. I love a multitasker, don't you?
Best champagne for mimosas
I know hardcore champagne enthusiasts and mixologists may disagree with me – but in my honest opinion, the best champagne for your mimosa is one you like the taste of.
I prefer to use an Extra Dry or Brut, but you can use whatever type you prefer. Choose the right champagne for your tastes! This picture shows you the different variations in sweetness if you need help deciding.
How to make cranberry mimosas for a crowd
You don't want to combine the cranberry juice and champagne in a pitcher and stir it because it messes with the natural carbonation from the champagne. Just the act of pouring the champagne into the glass will mix your drink just fine.
So, to serve a crowd you'll just pour 4 ounces of cranberry juice into as many glasses that you need, and top each off with the champagne. A 1.5L champagne bottle holds about 6 cups (48 ounces) so if you multiplied this recipe by 5 you’d have enough for 10 people using a single bottle of champagne.
How to make non-alcoholic cranberry mimosas
To make yourself cranberry mimosa mocktails, you can just swap the sparkling wine for non-alcoholic sparking grape juice!
Holiday meal pairings
A cranberry mimosa pairs perfectly with your holiday meals!
Set your table with an apple cider brined turkey, cornbread and bacon stuffing, roasted delicata squash and brussels sprouts, creamy pureed parsnips, and top it all off with a beautiful glass of cranberry mimosa next to each person's plate.
FAQs
A mimosa made with cranberry juice instead of orange juice is called a Poinsettia.
They may have a cute name, but I've heard it referred to simply as Cranberry Orange Mimosas!
We all know orange juice is good for mimosas, and now you know cranberry juice is great, too – but here are some others: apple cider, grapefruit juice, pineapple juice, cherry juice, pomegranate juice, mango juice, and even watermelon juice! Just remember that some fruit juices are more tart than others, so you may want to use a bit of simple syrup to sweeten it.
I always look for 100% cranberry juice – not cranberry juice cocktail! Any brand will do, but I personally like R.W. Knudsen Just Cranberry Juice.

This is excellent article, thank you for the share! This is what I am looking for, hope in future you will continue sharing such an superb work.

The video is doing all recipes EXCEPT the mimosas!)]]
Not sure what you’re talking about since the video embedded in the recipe card is for cranberry mimosas. I’m guessing maybe that once that short video played it moved on to the next video in the queue, and the video you saw was likely tailored to your interests based on your search and viewing history.
I haven’t tried it yet – it looks great.
A note regarding your instructions….
1/4 Cup is 2 ounces – not 4
1/2 Cup is 4 ounces – not 8.
There are 8 ounces in 1 Cup.
CHEERS!!!!
Yep, that’s correct. The instructions are indicating what you pour into each individual glass, which comes to the total indicated in the ingredients list :)
