Let's Do Brunch - With Amy Hateley

This week we are joined by the wonderful Amy Hateley as we take a look at the often malaigned, much beloved, social occasion that is bruch! When did people start brunching? What exactly defines brunch? And why is brunch something that you do, rather than have? We look at all of these questions and more on this week's episode!

Pour the sparkling wine into a fizz glass. Combine the rest of the ingredients without ice in a cocktail shaker, and dry shake for around thirty seconds.
