Red Grapefruit Mimosa
Get it at Rosie’s Place, Noblesville
8 oz. red grapefruit juice
187 ml. bottle of champagne
After recently receiving its liquor license, Rosie’s Place in Noblesville wasted no time in establishing a great mix of unique and traditional cocktails for being a breakfast and lunch café. Waiting until 5 o’clock to indulge won’t be an option as you can take your sweetie out on Valentine’s Day and order the colorful Grapefruit Mimosa.
The unique spin on the traditional orange juice and champagne beverage comes in three parts – a small bottle of champagne, a small decanter of grapefruit juice and an empty champagne flute. You play mixologist and whether or not you prefer your unique mimosas fruitier or with more bubbly, it’s all up to you to decide.
It yielded about two mimosas, and is a perfectly pink way to share your love and appreciation with each other on Valentine’s Day. Not a grapefruit fan? Rosie’s Place offers the traditional orange juice and champagne version as well to start the special morning off right.
If you decide to make this drink at home, play with adding garnishes such as fresh mint or sprigs of basil.
