Vodka Yummmosa
Celebrations, special occasions and Holidays are memorable moments that set them apart from our daily routines. Decorations, music and even themes are chosen depending on what’s being celebrated. The meals that are served are more sophisticated, refined and prepared differently to give a distinctive touch to the event.
Besides the food menu, there are also wines, cocktails and refreshments that set the tone for the occasion. Depending on the time of day the event takes place, certain alcoholic beverages can be served.
The best example I can give you is a brunch menu. It goes from eggs to seafood and includes most of the food you’d find on a breakfast or lunch menu. Regular beverages as well as alcoholic drinks are served for this particular meal and can include Bloody Caesar/Mary, Spritzer or Mimosa, just to name a few…
One drink I’m sure you’re already familiar with is a Mimosa, orange juice with champagne which can also be replaced by sparkling wine. This is an elegant drink to serve during brunch, a mid-afternoon gathering or even for a wedding.
I love champagne but I’m a vodka kind of girl therefore I created another cocktail that can be served for a brunch, New Year’s, or any other special occasion; it’s my Vodka Yummmosa! That’s right… This drink is quite refreshing, smooth and fruity. Vodka is the base for this drink along with two other fabulous liqueurs.
It all started when I was having brunch at my place. I served this cocktail to my guests and it was a hit! They really enjoyed my Vodka Yummmosa over the other well-known champagne drinks which is quite a tasty change. It’s elegant and yummy and like most drinks, easy to prepare… This Vodka Yummmosa is the perfect cocktail to celebrate! So at your next event, have a Yummmosa instead of a Mimosa!
– and please drink responsibly….
Cheers!
