# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • Everyone gets to be the artist here, mixing their own perfect combination while you stay relaxed and present with your guests.
  • It looks impossibly elegant but honestly requires zero cooking skills, which means you can spend the morning laughing instead of stressing.
  • The interactive element transforms a regular brunch into an experience where people bond over flavor discoveries and silly experiments.
02 -
  • Blend your purees the morning of but don't make them too far in advance, since they can separate or lose their vibrant color by later in the day.
  • The secret to a bar that feels effortless is setting it up completely before guests arrive; nobody wants to watch you scramble with a blender while they're standing around thirsty.
03 -
  • Freeze berries inside ice cubes the night before; they keep drinks cold longer while slowly releasing flavor, and it's such a small touch that people always comment on it.
  • Set out a chalkboard or simple notecard with suggested combinations so people feel guided without feeling pressured, giving them permission to either follow ideas or ignore them completely.
