Mother's Day Guide 2021: Here's what Mom really wants!

The pandemic that completely flipped our world last year has taught us many things, but one thing we really learned is just how strong and resilient mothers are! A lot of us had to quit our jobs, start homeschooling for the first time, and some moms had to spend several months away from their adult children and grandchildren. Needless to say, this Mother's Day should be an extra special one.

With that being said, we put together a blog full of different ways to shower all the "Moms" in your life (Safely, of course)!

Let's start off with a toast...

Sparkling Raspberry Lemon Mimosas
Sparkling Raspberry Lemon Mimosas

Ingredients:

  • 4 ounces chilled Brut Champagne or sparkling wine, cork just popped
  • 2 ounces raspberry lemonade, pulp strained out if desired
  • Fresh raspberries, sprinkled with white granulated sugar

Directions:

  • Pour about 2 ounces of champagne into a champagne flute (about ⅔ of the way up)
  • Pour about 1 ounce of raspberry lemonade into the flute (almost filling the flute)
  • Top with fresh sugared raspberries. Enjoy!

If she would like to opt for a non-alcoholic beverage, you can remove the champagne and replace with sparkling soda! Either way, remember that presentation goes a long way!

    • Send her a bouquet of flowers
    • Order her a tasty meal from a local restaurant (you may be supporting a fellow mom's small business!)
    • Send her a thoughtful gift filled with photos of her sweet grandchildren! (Here is a link to different options from Etsy!)
