Holiday Brunch Bar/Buffet 

Consider a brunch bar or a beautiful tablescape with an assortment of sweet and savory treats to satisfy your guests young and old.

Brunch in Bed

Weekends are for sleeping in and catching up on rest. Why not indulge in the cozy and comfortable and serve up some brunch in bed? Keep it simple with croissants, scones, (recipe on next page!), and mimosas, or easily whip up a frittata if you’re craving something savory.

Build Your Own Mimosa Bar

Variety is the spice of life! Give guests a flight of juices, a bottle of Champagne or sparkling wine (classic brut or brut rosé) & fresh fruit for garnishes so they can craft the perfect mimosa according to their tastes! This makes a memorable, visual impression and is great for mingling and conversation.

Make it easy with out mimosa kit!

Bridal Brunches & Baby Showers

Time to celebrate the bride or mom-to-be! 187ml mini bottles of blanc de blancs or brut rosé are a crowd pleaser as place settings, for mimosa mixing, or as the perfect takeaway favor for guests!

Unexpected Pairings

Pancakes are wonderful, but the best pairings for a bubbly brunch are the savory, spicy, salty variety: think fried chicken and waffles, eggs benedict, & huevos rancheros.

Recipe: Fresh Strawberry Scones by Vegan Chef Leslie Durso

Ingredients

For scones:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 Tbsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 6 Tbsp cold butter but into 1/4 inch cubes
• 1 cup full fat coconut milk
• 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
• 1 cup fresh chopped strawberries

For glaze:

• 1 3/4 cups confectioners sugar
• 1/4 cup lemon juice
• 1/4 tsp. pure vanilla extract
• Zest of 1 lemon
• 1 tbsp non-dairy butter

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and set it aside. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Using a pastry blender or your hands, cut in the cold butter until it’s a coarse mealy texture. In a small bowl, whisk together the coconut milk and vanilla. Pour over the flour mixture and stir just until dough begins to form. Don’t over mix! Fold in the strawberries. Place dough on a floured countertop and gently push together with your hands. Form into a 1 inch tall round. Use a knife to cut 8 triangles. Place the scones on the cookie sheet and brush the tops with coconut milk. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the scones are golden. Let cool on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack. Drizzle the scones with the lemon glaze. Glaze: In a glass bowl, combine the sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Add in the butter and microwave for 45 seconds. Whisk until smooth. Let cool a few minutes to thicken and pour over scones
