Drink Inventor

This is a fabulous summer party drink, especially if you love lemonade!  It starts with a base of lemonade, and combined with champagne for a delicious refreshment that’s easy to serve by the pitcher.

We like this using Cook’s Brut Champagne, a soft, sweet champagne that is very smooth to drink, and can be found for about $6.00 for a 750ml bottle.  It’s perfect for this lemonade mimosa recipe, and is great as a brunch sparkler.

Make a few batches of this recipe, and keep it stocked in the refrigerator for replenishing the bar.  This brunch cocktail is so spectacular, your guests will be asking for more!
