Blood Orange Sorbet Mimosas

January 27, 2021 By Lokness Leave a Comment

Tired of regular cocktail? How about this Blood Orange Sorbet Mimosa? A fun ice cream float for adults. All you need is rosé champagne and a homemade blood orange sorbet.

With the blood orange sorbet that I made last week, I want to use that for something fun. How about a mimosa?

When we were about to leave Northern California, I said goodbye to a few friends. One of my friends gave me a bottle of rosé champagne. I planned to open it after we moved, but we were too busy opening boxes. Then I thought we can drink that on New Year’s Eve, but we were too tired and didn’t want to drink anything that late at night. Finally, we got to drink it by making cocktails! It was perfect!

Tart and sweet sorbet pairs with sparkling rosé wine. It’s the adult version of ice cream float. Did I mention the colors? Pink on top of pink! It was awesome. And it was also very delicious too. The citrus flavor really came through. I love the contrast of sweet, tart and bitter. I wouldn’t mind having that every weekend.

There’s nothing complicated about this recipe. Just pour the champagne over the sorbet and serve. My recipe is only for 2 servings, but 1 bottle of 750ml sparkling rosé should be enough for 4 – 6 servings. It all depends of how much sorbet and rosé you put in each glass. Who is ready to celebrate? Either a birthday, Valentine’s Day, the weekend, or just a hump day, there is always something that we can cheer about, right?

Ingredients

  • 4 scoops blood orange sorbet
  • Sparkling Rosé wine

Instructions

  • Place 2 scoops of sorbet into each serving glass. Pour about 4 – 6 ounces (½ – ¾ cup) of sparkling rosé into each glass. Serve immediately.

Notes

  1. The blood orange sorbet is homemade. It’s very easy to do. But if you don’t have time for that, you can get a store-bought raspberry sorbet or lemon sorbet.
  2. You can use regular sparkling wine too, but the wine won’t be pink in color.
  3. One bottle of sparkling rosé is usually 750ml (25 oz/3 cups), which is enough for 4 – 6 servings.

Happy Lunar New Year! 新年快樂! Other than “ Happy Lunar New Year! 新年快樂! Other than “恭喜發財 Gong Hei Fat Choy” (wishing you wealth and prosperity), the other new year greeting that Bryan loves to say is “大吉大利 Dai Gut Dai Lei” (good luck and may things go smoothly).

In Chinese culture, mandarin oranges are often present during Lunar New Year. The pronunciation of the word “桔” (mandarin orange) sounds very similar to the word “吉” (luck), so mandarin orange is a fruit that brings in luck & prosperity. My grandma always have multiple plates full of mandarins in her house.

In this year of ox, I wish you all good health, good fortune, happiness & have a sweet year like these sweet mandarins! 🍊🐮🧧

Bryan & I have been dreaming about these chicken t Bryan & I have been dreaming about these chicken tenders from Sesame Grill @sesamegrill_626 for a few days. These tenders are unlike any we had before. Crunchy crust, yet delicate & not too heavy. The meat is super juicy & soft. Very simple food, but really well executed! Sesame Grill was original a fine dining restaurant, they redid their menu because of the pandemic & started to sell tenders only. And that got really popular! Incredible story & hope they’ll continue do well. If you’re ever in the area, definitely check them out.

Char Siu with Rice (叉燒飯) is a dish that I ca Char Siu with Rice (叉燒飯) is a dish that I can never get enough. Since I didn’t live close to a Chinese restaurant for a long time, I have been making my own for years. This week, I finally reshot the photos & gave a quick update for the recipe. Juicy & tender pork coated in a slightly sweet BBQ sauce, then top them over some hot steamed rice with a sweet soy sauce. Every bite is so satisfying!
