A mixer for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine includes a plate-shaped mixer body (26) with an incoming flow side (36) to be arranged oriented in the upstream direction in relation to an exhaust gas flow (HA1) and with an outflow side (38) to be arranged oriented in the downstream direction in relation to the exhaust gas flow (HA1), a first exhaust gas flow-through opening (30) in the mixer body (26), a reactant-receiving body (42) carried on the mixer body (26) in the area of the first exhaust gas flow-through opening (30), as well as a plurality of second exhaust gas flow-through openings (34) in the mixer body (26). The second exhaust gas flow-through openings (34) are arranged surrounding the first exhaust gas flow-through opening (30) in the mixer body (26).
