Recipe #2 - Stay in Bed Mimosas




The recipe calls for champange or prosecco but I don't drink so substituted sparkling water. ... just so you know.


it also calls for 'melting' sorbet in a saucepan over medium heat until slightly melted. I skipped that too. LOL


so I guess this drink, lovely as it is, should be called inspired by the recipe in the book.


seeing as I made it for one... as well.


Mimosa... I thought that was orange juice required ... guess not so this is more like a sorbet sparkling water float... LOL


2 -3 small scoops mango sorbet (bought small serving size container for $1.29 at safeway. just enough for 2 drinks as wanted...)

sparkling water (arrowhead lime flavored... $1 at safeway... fyi...)


let sorbet melt a bit in your glass before adding water. bonus points if the water has slushed overnight in the fridge...


stir to blend and enjoy.


not bad.


don't really need to make it again... I'm having a better time drinking berry pomegranite mio drink enhancer squirted into that slushy sparkling water now anyway... will probably just eat the last bit of sorbet! LOL


could be on the menu again... perhaps as raspberry sorbet with a splash of lemonade and lemon essence water...
