Spirited: Mango Mimosas




Source of Recipe


Sunset, May 1997






List of Ingredients



• 1 firm-ripe mango
  
• 1/2 cup orange juice
  
• 1 to 2 Tbsp lime or lemon juice (optional)
  
• 1/2 cup small ice cubes (optional)
  
• 1 bottle chilled sparkling wine
  






Instructions



1. Peel mango and cut fruit from pit into a blender. Add orange juice. Whirl until fruit is smoothly pur�ed. Taste, and if the flavor is a little flat, add 1 or 2 tablespoons lime or lemon juice. If fruit is at room temperature, also whirl in about 1/2 cup small ice cubes.
   
   Make mimosas by the pitcher or by the glass. The fruit pur�e makes the wine fizz madly, so pour slowly and stir down some of the bubbles. In a large pitcher, combine pur�e and 1 bottle chilled sparkling wine. Or fill glasses (about 1-cup size) about one-third with pur�e, then add wine.
   
   Makes 6 to 8 servings.
