Lovely Libations: Build Your Own Ombré Mimosa Bar

It’s no coincidence that Mother’s Day always falls on a Sunday. After all, Sunday is the perfect day to either plan a decadent spread or head out to your favorite brunch location. If you plan on doing the former this year, homemade mimosas should always be a staple on your brunch menu. We’re all for a classic orange juice and champagne combination, but when it comes to treating mom, this year we’re pulling out all the stops! Why not create a build-your-own mimosa bar to allow your guests and mama of honor to mix up a sweet sip all their own, starting with these next three recipes that we have up our sleeves.

Say hello to our DIY ombré mimosa bar! With a spread including sparking rosé, prosecco, and classic bubbly, these fruity mimosas were made to adorn a Mother’s Day celebration. Since we’re all about doing it ourselves here on LaurenConrad.com, we whipped up three homemade fruit purees to make these mimosas that more decadent. If this sounds right up your alley, be sure to scroll down and save these recipes for your next soiree. Let’s get sippin’…
