Time to raise a glass! May 16 is recognized as National Mimosa Day!
As reported by the National Today website, this classic cocktail dates all the way back to the 1920s and most likely got its name from a yellow flower native to Australia. The mixed drink, which is equal parts champagne and fruit juice, is a popular go-to drink for brunch with several variations to choose from.
