A colorful and easy-to-assemble fruit board perfect for Mother’s Day brunch, featuring fresh fruits, herbs, and a mimosa bar setup for a festive celebration.

Ingredients

  • Strawberries, hulled and halved
  • Blueberries
  • Orange slices, thinly cut with peel on
  • Pineapple chunks
  • Green grapes, halved
  • Kiwis, peeled and sliced
  • Raspberries
  • Fresh mint sprigs
  • Edible flowers like pansies or violets (optional)
  • Chilled sparkling wine or champagne
  • Freshly squeezed orange juice (no pulp)
  • Optional mixers: cranberry juice or peach nectar
  • Small bowls of granola or toasted almonds
  • Honey or agave syrup drizzle (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare your fruits (15 minutes): Wash and dry all fresh fruits carefully. Hull and halve the strawberries, slice kiwis and oranges thinly, halve grapes, and chunk pineapples.
  2. Arrange the fruit on your board (10 minutes): Start with larger fruit chunks like pineapple and orange slices spaced evenly. Fill gaps with smaller berries and grapes. Layer colors to create a vibrant, inviting display. Overlap slightly to add depth.
  3. Add herbs and edible flowers (5 minutes): Tuck fresh mint sprigs and edible flowers around the fruit clusters for aroma and visual appeal.
  4. Set up the mimosa bar (5 minutes): Place chilled sparkling wine and freshly squeezed orange juice nearby with champagne flutes. Add optional mixers like cranberry juice or peach nectar for variety.
  5. Include accents and toppings (2 minutes): Place small bowls of granola, toasted almonds, or honey near the board for guests to sprinkle or drizzle according to taste.

Notes

Keep fruit chilled before serving to maintain freshness. Add fresh mint and edible flowers just before serving to avoid wilting. For gluten-free option, skip granola or use certified gluten-free granola. Use sparkling water or non-alcoholic cider for alcohol-free mimosa options. Remove citrus seeds for smooth sipping.
