Are you tired of always having mimosas and Bloody Marys at brunch? I mean, we can all agree that not all brunch dishes taste good with a glass of orange juice or tomato juice. That’s why we think you should forget about the Bloody Marys and mimosas, and instead try a make-your-own spritz bar!
Cocktails are a must for brunch, but it’s time to think outside the mimosas and Bloody Marys to complement the thoughtful dishes you’ve planned (pineapple buns, anyone?). Our favorite solution is a make-your-own spritz bar that lets guests get creative with their beverages and gives you one less thing to worry about.
