Mother's Day Food

What’s a special way to celebrate Mother’s Day?

To make your mother feel extra-special on Mother’s Day, treat her to breakfast in bed. When shopping for a breakfast tray, pick one with sturdy wooden construction, built-in handles for carrying, and flip-down legs so she doesn’t have to worry about spills. Almost all moms love flowers, so cap off her Mother’s Day breakfast with a bouquet of her favorite blooms.

What are some tips for making the perfect mimosa?

To make the perfect mimosa, use a dry sparkling wine to offset the sweetness of orange juice. A Spanish Cava is a good pick. If possible, use fresh-squeezed orange juice and strain the pulp for a more delicate beverage. If purchasing store-bought juice, look for no-pulp products. For the best-tasting mimosa, use equal parts wine and juice, and add the ingredients in that order.

How can I make a fancy no-bake dessert for Mother’s Day?

To treat Mom to a fancy no-bake dessert, consider making parfaits. Just whip some heavy cream with a little sugar and vanilla and add equal parts whipped cream and berries into a clear glass. End with a layer of berries and sprinkle with crushed cookie crumbs for the perfect finishing touch. For more no-bake desserts, consider an ice cream cake or chocolate-covered strawberries.
