The perfect time to host a brunch shower is around 11am. The great thing
about this is you can serve both sweet and savory dishes!
First, start your baby shower brunch with some fancy beverages!
• Coffee - Be sure to have some java brewin'! Guests love to sip on it while eating dessert. Don't forget the cream and sugar!
• Mimosas - No baby shower brunch menu is complete without these yummy drinks! They can be made with or without champagne. For the real thing pour two-parts champagne to 1 part OJ. Mock version for the mom-to-be: substitute sparkling water, Sprite or 7-Up for the champagne.
For a pretty presentation and some added pizazz, add a splash of pomegranate or cherry juice. Serve in champagne flutes and decorate with baby-themed glass charms.
