It’s no secret that my favorite meal of the day is brunch. At brunch almost anything goes, with a combination of breakfast and lunch and cocktails. Plus, if you are like me, you feel like you aren’t inhaling quite as many calories that day because it’s only one meal right, not two.

Mimosa’s and Bloody Mary’s have been a staple brunch item for years, but to mix it up a little, and because I had grapefruit in my fruit bowl, I decided to try something new.

I made two versions of this Prosecco cocktail, lemon, and Sweet Scarlett’s red grapefruit. I knew I would love the lemon one because lemon cocktails are generally my favorite, but it turns out I actually loved the grapefruit even more.
