Mother's Day is the perfect day to welcome in the season's best Mimosas! Consider adding a touch of sparkle and a bit of bubbly to your Mother's Day brunch with some tried and true Mimosa recipes:

Basic Mimosa Recipe - It doesn't get any easier than this, the basic Mimosa recipe calls for a bottle of your favorite champagne and orange juice. A dash of each and you are in business to celebrate a wedding, Mother's day, whatever the occasion - nothing says fancy brunch like a Mimosa.

The Mama Mimosa - Take your traditional Mimosa recipe and add a delicate splash of an orange liquer topped with crushed raspberry ice - this Mimosa is not called the "Mama Mimosa" for nothing! a

The Passion Fruit Mimosa - This recipe takes the basic Mimosa and turns it up a notch, by replacing orange juice with passion fruit juice! Once you've enjoyed a Passion Fruit Mimosa, it is unlikely that you'll settle for the standard OJ and bubbles during your next celebratory brunch.
