What Do You Drink at Brunch?

October 9, 2019

The days are cooling (finally!), sunlit hours are shortening, and Sunday brunches are capturing the last warm mornings of the summer. We’ve been pouring a pretty broad range of bottles with brunch this summer, from a mixed case of Rhônes to some value-priced California rosés. Second breakfast really is one of the best parts of the weekend. What's been in your glass on those long mornings?

What are you drinking with brunch?

Sparkling and fruit is the only way to go—mimosas and Bellinis, please! Hair of the dog or not, a bloody mary is the perfect complement to savory breakfasts. Rosé, of course! Bright red fruit and high acidity pairs great with waffles and fruit. Take a tip from the Spaniards and pour some sangria—perhaps even with some triple sec to give it a bit of a kick. Easy-drinking bubbly like Prosecco—let's not think too hard about this! Clean and refreshing white wine—no need to make it complicated. It's morning, so coffee—but I won't say no to some crème liqueur mixed in. You left out my favorite!
