Ingredients
  

Apple cider mimosas
  • 2 cup apple cider Chilled
  • 1 bottle (750 ml) champagne or prosecco Chilled
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 apple Thinly sliced
  • cinnamon sticks For garnish

Method
 

Make the cinnamon sugar rim
  1. Mix sugar and ground cinnamon on a small plate until evenly combined, then set aside for dipping.
Rim and fill the glasses
  1. Wet the rims of the champagne flutes with chilled apple cider, then dip them into the cinnamon sugar to coat.
  2. Fill each flute one third full with chilled apple cider.
  3. Top each flute with chilled champagne or prosecco.
  4. Garnish each with a thin apple slice and a cinnamon stick, then serve immediately.

Notes

For the cleanest rim, chill the cider and sparkling wine well and keep the flutes cold as you work. Refrigerate leftover mimosas for up to 24 hours, but note they will lose sparkle—freezing is not recommended. For a dairy-free and gluten-free-friendly option, choose a gluten-free sparkling wine if needed.
