Instructions

Make the Coconut Simple Syrup: Heat the agave nectar and coconut water in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Stir occasionally and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes until the liquid is reduced by about half. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
Prepare the Glass Rims: Dip each champagne flute about 1/4 inch deep into the cooled coconut simple syrup, then immediately dip the wet rim into the unsweetened coconut flakes to create a coconut-coated rim. This step is optional but adds a delightful texture and flavor.
Assemble the Mimosas: Pour the coconut simple syrup into each flute to fill about 1/4 of the glass. Next, add equal parts (another 1/4 of the glass) of organic pure orange juice and ZICO pineapple mango juice blend. Finally, top off the flute with champagne or prosecco for a sparkling finish.
Serve and Enjoy: Serve immediately to enjoy the fresh, tropical flavors and effervescence of the cocktail.

Notes

For a non-alcoholic version, substitute champagne or prosecco with sparkling water or a sparkling white grape juice.
Make the coconut simple syrup in advance and refrigerate for up to one week.
Use chilled juices and champagne for the best refreshing taste.
Lightly toast the coconut flakes for an enhanced nutty flavor before using them as garnish.
Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of simple syrup according to your preference.
