Cheers! Mimosa Flights in Syracuse are More Popular than Ever
What better way to celebrate National Mimosa Day than by enjoying a mimosa flight – or two? I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – flights are so popular right now, since they are a fantastic way to try multiple varieties of different food and drink. Perfect for indecisive people like me who have FOMO for the choices they didn’t land on. I’ve covered beer flights, butter flights, and coffee flights. Now it’s time to check out the fantastic mimosa flights in Syracuse and nearby restaurants.
Mimosa Flights Around the Clock
Mimosas may be most popular on Sundays are brunch. But who says you can only have mimosas at brunch? These restaurants offer mimosa flights every day of the week so you can enjoy them whenever your heart desires.
CRAZY DAISIES
When Crazy Daisies first gained popularity, it was for the numerous social media posts with photos of their beautiful mimosa flights. Why? Because their flights not only featured a variety of fruity flavors, but they were each adorned with a different flower from their gardens. There are two different pre-selected mimosa flight options, each with 4 fruit + herb creations. And yes, each of the mimosas is also available in a full size version.
PS – When you go to Crazy Daisies, be sure to get the burrata and pesto – it’s phenomenal!
MODERN MALT
Boozy milkshakes and delicious cocktails are the signature items at this modern-yet-retro diner. And now that there are two Modern Malt locations in Syracuse, you have twice as many opportunities to enjoy their mimosa flights. The menu offers 8 different options, of which you can choose 4 for your flight. They even have a “manmosa”, made with Middles Ages’ Swallow Wit.

You can choose from a variety of colorful flavors including hibiscus, orange, fruit punch, Pink Whitney, sunrise, Hawaiian, beer, and moscow mule.
