Add more merry to your Christmas morning. Take a traditional mimosa and give it a festive twist by using cranberry and pineapple juice. Then top it off with red cranberries and a sprig of green rosemary. I'm not sure which is more fun, drinking it, smelling the aroma of the amazing rosemary in every sip, or simply admiring all the Christmas a glass can hold. I've made mimosas every Christmas morning for a handful of years now. Only I drink them, but who cares?! It's something I look forward to every year. I'm in my Christmas PJs, with my family I love, might have a little bedhead, opening gifts, and sipping spirits. It's a perfect Christmas morning if you ask me. These are quick and easy to make and add so much merry to your morning. At the end of this very challenging year, I wish you all a very happy and healthy holiday!
