This bubbly Coconut Macaroon is minty with light coconut flavor. The color is beautiful pastel green. Fits in nicely with the holiday season, right?! All photos, recipes, comments and opinions are my own unless otherwise stated.

Sunday brunch is one of my favorite meals. It means breakfast is a little more leisurely with a later morning start. And of course brunch wouldn’t be the same without a few bubbly cocktails. I don’t think I’ll ever tire of Mimosas and French 75s, but there’s always room for something new and different.

This bubbly Coconut Macaroon is minty with light coconut flavor. The color is beautiful pastel green. Fits in nicely with the holiday season, right?! The mint spring snuggled into the lovely foamy top of the drink is rather nice how it is, but dress the drink anyway you like. Sugar coated rim with coconut flakes would also be a festive choice.
