Screwdriver

Light drinks with fruity flavors make great additions to any brunch. Choosing a cocktail that matches the type of food being served is key to the mid-morning meal. A Screwdriver or Melon Patch are wonderful matches for a fresh fruit brunch while a Bloody Mary works well with heartier foods.

If you like a little bubbly with your brunch but don’t want the champagne (I love champagne but sometimes I get a champagne headache) try a modified Bellini-Tini (modified by Tini…hehehehe).

Belinni-Tini

1 oz Vodka
1/2 oz Peach Schnapps
Tonic Water (I use Diet Tonic)

Shake Vodka and Peach Schnapps over ice to chill (you could try shaking it with the Tonic but I have a feeling that’s not a good idea) and pour into Champagne Glass.  Top off with your Tonic Water and there you have it.

Here’s how to make a Martini Bellini that actually does have Champagne in it (and Rafaele is just adorable).
