This Virgin Mimosa Recipe is my variation of the traditional mimosa we became familiar with at baby showers and Sunday brunches. Also know as a "Mockmosa", this bubbly drink if a perfect non-alcoholic version of the classic cocktail when you want to forgo the alcohol. Plus, kids also love this delicious drink that is made with orange juice, limeade, and lemon-lime soda.
Beside being the perfect brunch drink, this easy mimosa mocktail if great for Mother's Day, special occasions, baby showers, and the holiday season.
The first time we made these was on Easter. As we drank our virgin mimosa mocktails, we dyed some eggs and decided to give Southern Fatty's Homemade Marshmallow Peeps a try. (They were amazing!)
Recipe Ingredients
- Orange Juice
- Limeade
- Lemon-Lime Soda
- Fresh Fruit for Garnish (optional)
How to make this fun mocktail
For presentation using the classic champagne flute adds to the elegance of this virgin mimosa drink.
Fill the glasses about a third to half-way full of the orange juice. Fresh orange juice works great for this drink, however, you can also use your favorite brand of orange juice.
Next, add the limeade. The lime juice adds a nice tartness to the virgin mimosa.
You want about half as much limeade as orange juice. The glass will now be about three-quarters full.
Finally, top it off with your favorite lemon-lime soda. If you prefer, you can use lemon-lime sparkling water. This adds the champagne fizziness to this delicious mocktail.
If you would like to add a bit more to this mocktail mimosa, add some fresh fruit such as orange slices or some strawberries.

If you would like to make this non-alcoholic option for large gatherings, to fill a punch bowl, just use the proportions of ½ orange juice, and one quarter each of limeade and lemon-lime soda. You can always sample and adjust the proportions to fit your own personal preference.
We hope you enjoy this Virgin Mimosa Recipe. This is the perfect virgin drink that the kids can also enjoy with you on those special occasions. So, get out those champagne glasses and wake your taste buds with this non-alcoholic mimosa recipe.

I would like to try your virgin mimosas recipe for a baby shower. However, due to the number of guests, I would like to make it up ahead of time and serve it from a punch bowl. Do you think this would work, and could you give me an idea as to the amount of each ingredient that would be needed?
Thanks.

Hi! I have never made a large batch of these mimosas. If it were me, I would just play with it a bit. Just before the shower pour a good amount of orange juice and a small amount of limeade in the bowl. Maybe 1/4 to 1/3 cup limeade to 2 cups orange juice. Then add some lemon-lime soda to get a decent amount of carbonation. Sample it and adjust from there. Since it will be in a punch bowl you might also want to make an orange juice ice ring to help keep it cool. Good luck and let me know how it goes.
