Which cocktail is traditionally served in a Champagne flute?

• A. Bloody Mary
• B. Negroni
• C. Dark & Stormy
• D. Mimosa

Answer: (D)

The glass shape is chosen to suit the drink’s carbonation and presentation. A Champagne flute is tall and narrow, which helps preserve the sparkle and concentrate the aroma, making sparkling drinks look elegant and stay bubbly longer. Mimosa is a classic brunch cocktail made with sparkling wine and orange juice, so it’s traditionally served in a Champagne flute to showcase the bubbles and keep the fizz intact. The other drinks are typically served in different glasses: a Bloody Mary in a highball or Collins glass, a Negroni in a rocks glass, and a Dark & Stormy in a highball.
