Our ratio, your call. The amounts below are a tested starting point — a version, not the one and only. Anything tagged to taste is the knob you turn: start there, then make it yours.
Non-alcoholic sparkling wine
A dry sparkling one, not a sweet grape soda, kept cold in the fridge overnight so it doesn't foam over.

Orange juice
Fresh-squeezed and strained of pulp. This is a two-ingredient drink, so the juice has to taste like an actual orange.
