Cranberry Mimosa

There’s no better way to start a holiday morning or cozy winter weekend than with a festive mimosa in-hand!
A traditional mimosa features two key ingredients: orange juice and prosecco. Sounds pretty simple, right? While mixing a mimosa is easy, making the perfect mimosa requires the right ingredients, like Heinen’s Vin Hunter Prosecco.
Every year at the holidays, Heinen’s releases their own Vin Hunter Prosecco made by their partners and friends at the Loredan Gasparini winery, a family-owned winery located in the epicenter of the highest quality Proseccos in the world. Heinen’s wine experts had a chance to visit the winery a few years ago and even brought in a Vin Hunter Prosecco Rosé. Delicious and extremely affordable, these Proseccos fly off the shelf each winter, so stock up now for all of your holiday mimosa making.
