Brunch Mimosa Fruit Salad

Introduction

Nothing captures the festive spirit of brunch quite like a Mimosa Fruit Salad—a vibrant medley of seasonal fruits tossed in a bubbly, citrus-infused dressing. This dazzling salad offers a sparkling twist on the classic fruit salad, making it an unforgettable addition to any celebratory table. Ultra-refreshing and beautifully versatile, it’s the perfect dish for bridal showers, Easter, Mother’s Day, or any time you want to inject fruity sunshine into your morning menu.

What Makes Mimosa Fruit Salad a Standout Brunch Favorite?

The key to this salad’s irresistible appeal lies in its combination of juicy, colorful fruit and a lively mimosa-inspired dressing. The slight effervescence of champagne or sparkling wine (with a non-alcoholic option for all-ages gatherings) lifts the flavors of the fruit, while fresh orange juice ties everything together. Each bite is light, zesty, and celebratory—an instant crowd-pleaser.

How to Prep Fruit Quickly and Uniformly

Uniform, bite-sized chunks make for the best fruit salad eating experience. For speed and precision, using a Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper streamlines the chopping and yields perfectly consistent pieces, ensuring your salad is as visually pleasing as it is delicious.

Select a range of fruit that balances sweetness and tartness: think strawberries, pineapple, oranges, blueberries, oranges, grapes, and kiwi for a riot of flavor and color.

Crafting the Sparkling Mimosa Dressing

The zippy mimosa dressing blends sparkling wine with fresh orange juice and a hint of honey for a fragrant, bubbly toss. For a sophisticated finish, gently blend the dressing to achieve perfect emulsion using the Ninja BL610 Professional 72 Oz Countertop Blender. If serving a younger crowd or those who prefer to skip the alcohol, swap champagne for sparkling apple cider or club soda.

Transport and Serve with Style

Whether you’re headed to a potluck or setting a stunning buffet spread, keep your salad looking fresh and appetizing by packing it in a leak-proof Bentgo Salad Container. When entertaining, pair with a festive mimosa bar and offer guests stylish hydration options—like a chilled Stanley Quencher ProTour Flip Straw Tumbler, 30 oz.
