Receta Pumpkin Fizz Cocktail
Watching the Macy's Day Parade with friends and family this Thanksgiving? I love to do this as a brunch gathering before the main event. Serve make-ahead coffee cake and quick breads, breakfast bakes and stratas, baked egg dishes...whatever you can make in advance and heat the morning of, freeing you to get started on your dinner preparations. This is a great way to accommodate out-of-town guests.
This Pumpkin Fizz Cocktail is a spicy, autumnal twist on the traditional mimosa, and is the perfect complement to brunch foods. To make it a mocktail, use sparkling cider.

Unexpected effervescence in the form of Prosecco pairs surprisingly well with pumpkin in this fizzy, lightly sweet cocktail. Try this one at brunch on Thanksgiving Day.
