New Year’s Day Mimosa Bar
Setting up a mimosa bar is simple. Start with champagne, of course! Then add carafes of juice and bowls of fresh fruit. I usually serve blueberries, raspberries, strawberries and mango. The juices I typically serve are orange, mango-passion fruit, and cran-raspberry. You can also use grapefruit, pineapple or blackberry juice. Set up champagne flutes on either side to make it easy for guests to make their own mimosas.
3.Bar Cart Printables
Personalize your bar cart with signage and add a “Pop Fizz Clink” sign for an inviting feel.
