What is a Manmosa? Why do you need many Manmosa recipes?

A Manmosa is a twist on the traditional brunch cocktail, Mimosa. If the latter is made using champagne and orange juice, the Manmosa is less pretentious. With just some beer and some orange juice, you can have your great cocktail in less than a minute. Fresh, alcoholic, orange, at your service, the Manmosa!
