Sunday Morning Zoomosa

Sparkling Citrus, Lillet & Prosecco Punch

Have a Sunday morning Zoom with old college pals or east coast family who schedule something early? Make it fun and festive. Make this morning somehow different from Monday morning! This is a fresh tasting spin on a mimosa.

serves 4

Ingredients

• 1 cup strained citrus juice (we used a combination of Meyer lemon, oranges, pink grapefruit, plus a squeeze of regular lemon juice to sharpen the flavors)

• 1 cup Lillet Blanc or Lillet Rosé

• 1-2 cups Prosecco or other dry sparkling wine

• ice

• citrus rounds and wedges, for garnish

Preparation

• Combine the citrus juice, Lillet and 1 cup of the Prosecco in a large pitcher half-filled with ice and some citrus rounds and wedges.

• Stir and taste for balance and add more juice or Lillet, depending on your desire for sweetness.

• Strain or scoop into cups and serve with ice or without.

• For that Sunday morning festive vibe, top off each glass with an extra pour of Prosecco.

Notes

Double or triple the recipe if serving a crowd, or make smaller portions to order by shaking 2 ounces each citrus juice and Lillet with ice, straining it into glasses, and topping with chilled Prosecco and a citrus round.

For a lighter drink, or if you don't wish to crack a bottle of bubbly, serve the citrusy Lillet over ice with a pour of sparkling water.
