# Expert tips:

01 -
  • They look fancy enough to impress but require zero cooking skills or kitchen drama.
  • The bubbles stay intact, so each bite actually tastes like a real mimosa, just colder and easier to hold.
02 -
  • If you dump the sparkling wine in too quickly or stir too hard, you'll lose all those tiny bubbles that make this special; gentle is the only speed that works.
  • Don't forget that tiny bit of headspace in the molds—I once filled them all the way and ended up with popsicles that cracked and splintered as they froze, which was a disappointing waste of good Prosecco.
03 -
  • Buy your strawberries a day or two before you plan to make these so they're at peak ripeness; frozen berries work in a pinch, but fresh ones create a brighter flavor and prettier color.
  • The secret nobody talks about is that slightly diluting the wine with a tiny splash of water helps the bubbles stick around longer in the finished popsicle, so it actually tastes bubbly when you bite into it.
