That is a mimosa, a bucks fizz has two parts orange juice to one part champagne. A mimosa is the very opposite, giving the mimosa a much higher alcohol content.

The original mimosa did not include Orange liqueur. That was not created until later.

How do you calculate your alcohol intake with this drink. Say if I had 5 flute glasses of this drink how much alcohol intake is there.

By From Wikipedia

A Mimosa is a cocktail-like drink composed of three parts champagne and two parts thoroughly chilled orange juice, traditionally served in a tall champagne flute with a morning brunch. It is also often served to early guests at weddings, and in first class on jet airliners.

An added tablespoon of Grand Marnier creates what's known as a Grand Mimosa.

That's not a mimosa. Mimosa has to have orange liquer in it like cointreau or grand marnier, otherwise its just a bucks fizz!
