Moms Deserve Mimosa

No brunch would be complete without a Mimosa, or two, alongside your eggs benedict and smoked salmon. It’s a great tipple to enjoy, especially this Mother’s Day weekend.

The history behind this favourite pre-midday cocktail is much disputed. The most plausible link points to bartender Frank Meier who created it at the Hotel Ritz in Paris.

The Herres winery has come to the rescue and it is now available on a continuous basis at your favourite LCBO location. Mimosa lovers may enjoy this yummy imported sparkling cocktail pre-mixed. It’s no longer necessary to go through the time-consuming exercise of blending orange juice and sparkling wine hoping to hit the right combination of flavour and sparkle. The effervescence brings a liveliness as well as balance to the citrus elements. Enjoy, when the occasion calls, not just for brunch but also on the patio or deck during the upcoming sultry days of summer.
