WHO NEEDS SOME hair of the dog? Rather than grimly cracking open another can, mix it up a little.

Try some of these tasty (and restorative) brunch cocktails.

It may be extremely easy to make mimosas (champagne and orange juice – simple), but they scream LUXURY. Treat yo’self.

Tequila Sunrise

The classic brunch cocktail, Bloody Marys have tomato juice and a bit of celery in them, so you’re totally getting some of your five-a-day too. Recipe here.

Blush Slush

Put your blender to good use for once and make an alcoholic smoothie. Recipe here.

Raspberry Beer Cocktail

Beer cocktails are a thing now, apparently. This one combines Corona with pink lemonade and vodka. Recipe here.
