The idea came to Ryan Ayotte two years ago, as he and some buddies were on a boat just off of Cape Cod, trying to mix sparkling wine and orange juice. But choppy waters made the endeavor difficult, and Ayotte and his friends wound up making messes instead of mimosas.
Fast forward to the present, and one of the first mimosas in a can is finally hitting store shelves across Central New York, although it s had local connections for years.
Ayotte, originally from Cambridge, Massachusetts and now 27 years old, founded Ohza Mimosas, which according to New York Upstate, uses sparkling wine produced in the Finger Lakes and is mixed and packaged at F.X. Matt Brewing Company in Utica.
