Weird. I always figured it was a rum drink. Just looked it up and mimosa is simply orange juice and champagne.
I drank-in the new year 2000 with champagne and Guinness Extra Stout mixed 50/50. Good stuff! We were all here, wondering if the internet was gonna crash. It didn’t...
My answer to the day after partying too much has always been the Bloody Mary - large glass of tomato juice with vodka, hot sauce, and a stick celery to chew on. After a couple of those, "Start Me Up, Start Me Up, Baby, I'll Never Stop"! I've even enjoyed them in the late afternoons until I meet up with Captain Morgan (rum).
For some reason many women prefer Champagne with various mixes. I've tried my wife's and it's like drinking carbonated soda water with some lame mix. Uggh.
