Spring Brunch Cocktails

Hi y’all! Yesterday I hosted a live on my Instagram where I shared my favorite drink Prosecco and 3 cocktails I enjoy making with it. I promised I would post the recipes on my blog today so you can have a reference point. I want to say I had so much fun on the live and maybe got a little tipsy too and I look forward to more lives and sharing more recipes and some girl chat with y’all in the future!

Here are the recipes!

Sunrise and Moonlight Mimosa

Ingredients:

  • Prosecco (my favorite is LaMarca)
  • Strawberry and blueberry syrup (see this post for the recipe)
  • Orange juice
  • Pineapple juice
  • Fresh or frozen fruit

Directions:

In a champagne flute add fruit and then pour orange juice & pineapple juice. Top with Prosecco or champagne. Add strawberry syrup for a sunrise mimosa and blueberry syrup for a moonlight mimosa. Enjoy!

Peach Bellini

Ingredients:

  • Prosecco
  • 1-2 cups frozen peaches
  • 1 cup of ice
  • Peach nectar or simple syrup
  • 1-2 tbsp Strawberry syrup (optional)

Directions:

In a blender add peaches, ice, peach nectar, simple syrup (or sugar, if you want this sweet) & strawberry syrup. Blend until a slushy consistency. Add to a champagne flute and top with Prosecco. Enjoy!

French 75

Ingredients:

  • 2 ounces of your favorite Gin
  • 1 oz of fish lemon juice or more if you’d like
  • 1 oz of simple syrup (add more if you’d like it sweeter)
  • 1 cup of ice
  • Prosecco
  • Lemon peel or twist for garnish

Directions:

In a shaker add lemon juice, gin, ice and simple syrup. Shake until blended and add to champagne flute. Top with Prosecco and lemon peel or twist. Enjoy! Note: this is my new favorite drink but be careful, that gin will make you sin! Lol

I hope you enjoy these drinks in the future either at a brunch or happy hour or to unwind after a long day. If you do recreate them please tag me on Instagram @severalpeoplesmama
