1. Timeless Eggs Benedict: 

The delicate dance of poached eggs, savory ham, and rich hollandaise on a toasted English muffin finds its perfect partner in a refreshing mimosa, creating a delightful contrast of textures and flavors.

The perfect Eggs Benedict is a masterpiece of contrasting textures and flavors, demanding attention to detail at every step. Here's a guide to achieving brunch perfection. Perfect with our classic Berry Mimosa, available here. 

Ingredients:

• English muffins: Choose fresh, high-quality muffins that can be toasted to a crisp golden brown without becoming crumbly.
• Canadian bacon: Opt for thick-cut, high-quality Canadian bacon for a more substantial bite.
• Eggs: Use the freshest eggs you can find for the best flavor and texture.
• Hollandaise sauce: You can make your own or use a good-quality store-bought version.
• Lemon juice: Freshly squeezed adds a brighter flavor.
• White vinegar: Helps the egg whites coagulate for poaching.
• Salt and pepper: To taste.
• Optional garnishes: Fresh herbs like chives or dill, paprika, grated lemon zest.

Instructions:

1. Toast the English muffins: Split the muffins horizontally and toast them until golden brown and crisp.
2. Poach the eggs: Bring a pot of water to a simmer (not boiling!). Add a splash of vinegar. Crack each egg into a ramekin or small bowl. Swirl the water to create a vortex and gently slide the eggs into the water. Poach for 3-4 minutes for a runny yolk, longer for a firmer yolk. Use a slotted spoon to remove the eggs and drain any excess water.
3. Prepare the Canadian bacon: Heat a pan over medium heat and cook the Canadian bacon until golden brown and crispy on both sides.
4. Assemble: Place a toasted English muffin half on a plate. Top with Canadian bacon, then an egg. Spoon warm hollandaise sauce generously over the egg. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Tips:

• For a perfect hollandaise: Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature. Use a double boiler or blender method to prevent curdling. Add the melted butter slowly while whisking continuously. Season to taste with lemon juice and salt.
• Keep it warm: Use a warm plate to prevent the Eggs Benedict from getting cold. You can also briefly warm the Canadian bacon and hollandaise before assembling.
• Variations: Swap the Canadian bacon for smoked salmon, ham, or another protein of your choice. Use different herbs or spices for the hollandaise sauce.

2. Fluffy Pancake Indulgence: 

Imagine a stack of fluffy pancakes drizzled with golden maple syrup, their sweetness and caramel notes harmonizing with the citrusy sparkle of a mimosa. Each bite is a heavenly blend of softness and effervescence.

Achieving light, airy, and melt-in-your-mouth pancakes is easier than you think! This is the classic option to pair with our orange mimosa flavors. Here's a guide to help you whip up a stack that's sure to impress: 

Ingredients:

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
• 1 egg
• 2 tablespoons melted butter
• Additional butter or cooking oil for greasing

Instructions:

1. Dry ingredients first: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. This ensures even distribution and prevents clumps.
2. Wet ingredients separately: In another bowl, whisk together milk, egg, and melted butter.
3. Don't overmix: Combine the wet and dry ingredients just until combined. A few small lumps are okay, overmixing will result in dense pancakes.
4. Preheat your pan: Use a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly coat with butter or oil.
5. Pour your batter: Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to portion batter onto the preheated pan. Leave space between pancakes for them to spread.
6. Watch for bubbles: Don't flip the pancakes too early! Wait until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges start to solidify.
7. Flip with care: Use a spatula to gently flip the pancakes. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown on the other side.
8. Stay warm: Keep cooked pancakes warm on a preheated plate in the oven while you cook the rest.

Tips for extra fluffiness:

• Use buttermilk instead of milk for a tangy flavor and extra lift.
• Separate the egg white and whisk it to stiff peaks before folding it gently into the batter.
• Let the batter rest for 10-15 minutes before cooking. This allows the gluten to relax and creates fluffier pancakes.
• Don't press down on the pancakes while cooking.

Variations:

• Add flavorings like vanilla extract, chocolate chips, blueberries, or bananas to the batter.
• Top your pancakes with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or nuts.

3. Savory Quiche Lorraine: 

The buttery crust and creamy filling of this classic offer a delicious counterpoint to the lightness of a mimosa. Smoky bacon, rich cheese, and silky custard intertwine with the vibrant champagne, creating a harmonious fusion. For the savory, go for a sweeter style mimosa, like our watermelon flavor! 

Here's how to make a classic Quiche Lorraine:

Ingredients:

For the Crust:

• 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
• 3-4 tablespoons ice water

For the Filling:

• 1/2 pound thick-cut bacon, diced
• 1 medium onion, diced
• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup grated Gruyère cheese
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions:

1. Make the Crust:

• In a large bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• Gradually add the ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough just comes together. Avoid overworking it.
• Form the dough into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate, trimming the edges. Gently crimp the edges.
• Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork and bake for 10 minutes. Let cool slightly.

2. Prepare the Filling:

• Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
• In the same skillet, cook the onion over medium heat until softened, about 5 minutes.
• In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, cream, cheeses, nutmeg, salt, and pepper.
• Stir in the cooked bacon and onions.

3. Assemble and Bake:

• Pour the filling into the pre-baked crust.
• Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
• Let cool slightly before serving.

4. Smoked Salmon & Cream Cheese Bagel Bliss: 

Delicate smoked salmon on a freshly toasted bagel, generously spread with cream cheese, presents a luxurious pairing. The briny and smooth nature of the salmon, combined with the tangy cheese, elevates the citrusy undertones of the champagne, resulting in a divine mouthful. Nothing quite pairs with our mango mimosas like this recipe for smoked salmon, cream cheese bagels! Otherwise known as, Lox! 

Ingredients:

• 2 high-quality bagels, halved and toasted
• 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 4 ounces thinly sliced smoked salmon
• 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped (optional)
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional)
• Capers, red onion slices, cucumber slices, fresh herbs (like chives or parsley) for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

1. Cream Cheese Preparation: In a bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with the chopped dill (if using) and lemon juice (if using). Season with salt and pepper to taste.
2. Assemble the Bagels: Spread a generous layer of flavored cream cheese on each toasted bagel half.
3. Top with Smoked Salmon: Arrange the thinly sliced smoked salmon on top of the cream cheese, covering as much of the surface as you like.
4. Finishing Touches: Add your desired garnishes! Popular options include capers, red onion slices, cucumber slices, and fresh herbs like chives or parsley.

Tips:

• For an extra creamy and flavorful twist, add a tablespoon of sour cream to the cream cheese mixture.
• If you prefer a sweeter bagel, choose an option like cinnamon raisin or blueberry.
• Experiment with different types of smoked salmon, like gravlax or hot-smoked salmon, for a varied taste experience.
• Consider adding a thin layer of avocado spread between the bagel and cream cheese for a richer and more decadent touch.
• To prepare all components in advance, toast the bagels, mix the cream cheese, and slice the vegetables earlier. Assemble the bagels with smoked salmon and garnishes just before serving to maintain freshness.

5. Crispy Bacon & Avocado Toast Delight: 

The marriage of crispy bacon and creamy avocado on perfectly toasted bread is a brunch classic that pairs impeccably with mimosas. The contrasting textures and flavors complement the effervescence, creating a playful dance on the palates. Perfect to pair with our pleasant pineapple mimosas! Enjoy our recipe:

• 1 ripe avocado
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
• Optional garnishes: chopped fresh herbs (chives, cilantro, parsley), crumbled feta cheese, red onion slices, lemon juice squeeze

Instructions:

1. Toast the Bread: In a skillet over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Toast the bread slices until golden brown and crispy on both sides. Alternatively, use a toaster or oven broiler for convenience.
2. Cook the Bacon: In the same skillet or a separate pan, add the remaining olive oil and cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Drain excess fat on paper towels.
3. Prepare the Avocado: While the bacon cooks, halve the avocado, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Mash it in a bowl with a fork, leaving it slightly chunky or smooth, depending on your preference. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Assemble the Toast: Spread the mashed avocado generously over each toasted bread slice. Top with the crispy bacon pieces.
5. Finishing Touches: Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Add your desired garnishes for extra flavor and texture. Popular options include chopped fresh herbs, crumbled feta cheese, red onion slices, or a squeeze of lemon juice.
