Brunch is a time when you can indulge. But, it doesn’t have to be an extravagant brunch menu. Brunch cocktails are lighter, fruitier, and can be paired with food. There are many brunch cocktails to choose form if you plan a brunch party. With a little creativity, your guests will be impressed by your creative ideas.
Bloody Marys are a must-have brunch cocktail. They're perfect for those days you don’t feel the need to have a mojito. There are many flavors to choose from, including peach and orange. It is easy to make, and a lot fun. Serve it with a lime wedge, cucumber, pineapple slice, or fresh fruit garnish.
Lemon Drops is another classic brunch cocktail. The simple syrup and lemon juice are the ingredients for this drink. Serve it in martini glasses, with margarita-style sugar at the rim. You can also try adding flavored simple syrups for color.
The bellini is another favorite brunch cocktail. The bellini, a cousin to the mimosa is a bubbly drink that goes well with brunch. To make the Prosecco, you will need to add peach nectar as well as peach juice. You should muddle the cucumber slices before straining the drink into your glasses. Top the drink with whipped cream or crushed pistachios.
An easy brunch cocktail is the Southern-ized sangria. It's a sweeter alternative to the traditional red sangria. You can add fresh fruit to this refreshing drink.
The perfect cocktail for large groups is the Pitcher Cocktail. You can use a wide variety of ingredients, such as gin, tequila, vermouth, grapefruit soda, and even a spicy cocktail. There are a number of pitcher recipes to choose from, so you'll be able to create a cocktail that everyone can enjoy.
While you can't really go wrong with a mimosa (or any other type of cocktail), don't underestimate how powerful the bloody mariy. This delicious drink is full of zesty, boozy flavor. Mix the bloody mary one night ahead to get the best flavor. No matter whether you're making a brunch with it or just a glass of it, it will be delicious.
Madras is another great cocktail for brunch parties. It is a mixed cocktail that contains vodka, fresh orange juice, and freshly squeezed cranberry juice. Just be sure to add some ice for a nice cold drink.
The drunken mocha, another brunch favorite, is also a crowd pleaser. The drunken mocha is a strong drink that can also be sweetened, just like the bloody Mary. For a festive twist add whipped Cream, chocolate sprinkles or even chocolate shards.
If you're looking for a more unique brunch cocktail, why not try an ice pop? An ice pop is a great way of adding fruity flavors to cocktails. Instead of pouring the liquid in a glass, prop the pops up inside the glass and allow the liquid to infuse.
The best part about brunch cocktails is that you don't have to worry about a hangover. The best brunch cocktails are light, fruity and refreshing. These cocktails will help celebrate your special occasion with minimal effort.

How To
How to order drinks at the bar without embarrassing yourself
There are many ways you can order drinks at your local pub, but you must know what type of drink it is before you go up to the bar. If you don't know what drink you want, then you should ask your server how they would recommend ordering it. This way you won't be embarrassed when they make recommendations.
This involves talking to your server and telling him/her what kind of drink you would like. One example is "I'd love a glass" of beer. Next, tell your server what beer you prefer. For example, you could say, "A Budweiser." Next, tell you server which size you desire (e.g., small medium large). When you're done, he/she will give you the correct price, and you'll never feel awkward again!
