I came up with this recipe when I was pregnant. I wasn't a drinker, but I read a recipe for a real Mimosa in a magazine, and thought.."That wouldn't be hard to make with soda!"
Ever since, it has been a staple drink with me, my sister and my mom. It's also great with other juices splashed in, or Sierra Mist Cranberry Splash instead of regular. It makes a great punch for a party or shower, especially with a gallon of sherbet on top!

You Will Need (3 things)

  • Orange Juice
  • Sierra Mist Sprite, or 7 up
  • Ice cranberry juice, grapefruit juice

Steps (3 steps, 2 minutes)

  1. 1

    First, fill your glass or pitcher half way with orange juice. You can use pulpy or pulp-free, depending on your taste. It won't change the taste, just texture.

  2. 2

    add a scoop of ice, depending on how much you like. You could leave this out, if your soda is cold.

  3. 3

    Fill your glass or pitcher the rest of the way with lemon-lime soda, and stir.
    If you don't you will have orange on the bottom, murky clear on top, and it won't taste as good :P
    Serve!
