Italian Strawberry Mimosa is the perfect Sunday brunch cocktail — festive, light, and ready in minutes. While many restaurants offer “bottomless” mimosas made with inexpensive dry champagne and store orange juice, this version gives the classic a bright Italian twist using Prosecco and a strawberry accent for a refreshing, slightly sweeter finish.
If you follow a low-carb or keto-friendly plan, you’ll appreciate that this cocktail keeps carbs very low — about 3.5g per serving. We use sugar-free strawberry syrup and a low-calorie orange juice to keep the flavor authentic while minimizing carbohydrates. That makes this a great option whether you’re indulging at a brunch party or simply enjoying a relaxed morning at home.
Ingredients
Traditional mimosas pair champagne with orange juice. This recipe swaps champagne for Italian Prosecco, which tends to be fruitier and slightly sweeter but remains similar in carbs to a dry champagne. Prosecco is made from the Glera grape and is often more affordable than Champagne, making it a great choice for brunch mimosas. For this recipe we used a supermarket Prosecco, chilled and ready to pour.
To keep carbs low we use Trop50 orange juice, which has the taste of real orange juice but fewer carbs. Three ounces of Trop50 contain about 4.7g carbs; this recipe uses only one ounce per drink (about 1.6g carbs). For the strawberry flavor we use a Torani sugar-free strawberry syrup. If you prefer a fresh fruit version, pulse fresh strawberries in a blender or muddle them, but keep in mind that fresh strawberries will raise the carb count — approximately 1 net carb per strawberry. We recommend the sugar-free syrup and Trop50 if you want to keep the drink keto-friendly.
Ingredients (per serving):
- 1/2 ounce Torani Sugar-Free Strawberry Syrup
- 1 ounce Trop50 orange juice (chilled)
- 3 ounces chilled Prosecco
- Fresh strawberry for garnish
Preparation Tips
This cocktail is effortless to prepare — no shaker required. Build the drink in a chilled fluted champagne glass. Pour the strawberry syrup into the bottom, add the ounce of Trop50, then top with cold Prosecco (about 3 ounces). Pour slowly if you’d like the syrup to create a layered look, similar to a Tequila Sunrise, or give the glass a gentle stir with a bar spoon to blend the flavors. Serve very cold and garnish with a fresh strawberry on the rim.
Sugar-free flavored syrups like Torani are versatile and let you create a variety of mimosa flavors without extra carbs: try peach (for a Bellini), mango, or pineapple sugar-free syrups with the same Prosecco and Trop50 for unique brunch cocktails.
Fluted champagne glasses typically hold 5–6 ounces; this recipe yields about a 4.5-ounce pour. Make sure all ingredients and glasses are well chilled before serving. If you’re entertaining, you can scale the recipe: a 750 ml bottle of Prosecco will yield about eight mimosas. To batch for a party, multiply the ingredients by eight and combine the syrup and Trop50 in a pitcher, then top with chilled Prosecco when serving.
Our Italian Strawberry Mimosa is an easy, crowd-pleasing cocktail for Sunday brunch. Ready in about five minutes, it’s low in carbs and full of flavor. Garnish each glass with a fresh strawberry and enjoy!
