Reasons why prosecco truly is the best option for brunch
Now, when it comes to making a proper mimosa, there are a few different options. Orange juice, a little bit of triple sec/Grand Marnier, and a splash of bubbly to finish it off are all ingredients that are needed to craft the classic mimosa. When it comes to the alcohol of choice, most will typically reach for the champagne because it’s the go-to option. However, you should try prosecco the next time that you are gearing up for a loaded brunch, and here’s why.
Little Less Alcohol
Starting the day off with brunch usually means that there is a good chance the rest of the day will be spent drinking as well. Day drinking can get out of hand pretty quickly if patrons aren’t mindful of what they’re drinking because it can be super easy to down a couple of mimosas without thinking twice. Prosecco’s ABV is a little less than its counterpart (usually around 11-12%), which is a good thing when day drinking is the plan of action. And you can drink all day if you start with some prosecco drinks for brunch.
