A Couple of weeks away from a Mimosa Festival… If I was beginning a conversation about the best ways to prepare to enjoy a day of drinking sparkling citrus alcoholic beverages…I’d start off saying that fasting the day before and probably not eating the morning of the festival to achieve optimal “sensory” experience, is a great starting point.. If you eat to much before drinking alot of sparkling beverages you could get that bloated feeling which takes away from the desired “euphoric” feeling.
