How long does premixed mimosa last?

Answered by Brandon Riddell

As a sommelier and brewer, I can confidently say that premixed mimosa, such as Soleil Mimosa, is best enjoyed fresh and immediately after opening. The flavors and quality of the drink are at their peak when consumed right away. However, if you happen to have an unopened bottle of Soleil Mimosa, you can expect it to have a shelf life of approximately 24 months.

It's important to note that once you open a bottle of Soleil Mimosa, it is best to take some measures to preserve its freshness and prevent it from going bad. One way to do this is by using a specialty stopper to seal the bottle tightly after each use. This will help to maintain the carbonation and prevent any unwanted oxidation.

After sealing the bottle, it is crucial to store it in the refrigerator. Keeping the Soleil Mimosa chilled will help to slow down any potential spoilage and maintain its flavors. It is recommended to refrigerate the opened bottle promptly and consume it within several days for the best taste experience.

In my personal experience, I have found that partially consumed bottles of premixed mimosas tend to lose some of their carbonation and freshness over time. This is why it is crucial to consume them within a few days of opening. It's always best to enjoy a mimosa when it is at its peak and offers the most delightful flavor profile.

To summarize, premixed mimosas like Soleil Mimosa are best enjoyed immediately after opening. However, if you have an unopened bottle, it can last up to 24 months. If you do open a bottle, make sure to seal it tightly with a specialty wine stopper, refrigerate it, and consume it within several days for the best taste experience. Remember, the fresher the mimosa, the more delightful your drinking experience will be.
