RNY Friendly Punch or Mimosa?
Hey Everyone!
So, I am an RNY'er and so are my Mom and Dad. This year for Mother's Day, we are inviting my parents, my Mother-In-Law, Sister-In-Law, and Niece to our place for a special brunch!
My husband loves when I make breakfast--eggs/bacon/pancakes, etc. So he is thrilled! And, I know I can make carb-filled goodies for the non-WLS'ers and low-carb stuff for the RNY'ers.
BUT....
I wanted to have a special Mimosa-Like or punch-like drink that would be non carbonated and non alcoholic and low carb. LOL I know I might be nuts, but I am wondering if somebody here can help me....PLEASE!
Thanks so much! My guests will thank you too, I'm sure!
Hugs, Heather
P.S. Happy Mother's Day to all the Moms!

How about using the Crystal Light Sunrise? You could put a bit of a banana puree floating on the top...or maybe a cherry in the bottom of the glass. Use wonderful champagne flutes or martini glasses...it would look very pretty with a sprig of mint as well...
Good luck...
and Happy Mother's Day to you as well!

Every morning in Africa , a gazelle wakes up.
It knows it must outrun the fastest lion or it will be killed.

It knows that it must run faster than the slowest gazelle, or it will starve.
It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle
when the sun comes up you'd better be running.

Yeah, my Dad was just telling me about this tonight...he drinks it and he has had RNY, so he thought it might be a good option. Some people have said that you can use diet gingerale and let it go flat, but I'm not sure if I'd like that. So, I might try some of that FUZE stuff. Or who knows...maybe the diet gingerale would give it the tang it needs.. I guess I'll be trying a few things this week!

Heather, i would make a frozen crystal light fruit ring, so it is like ice floating i the punch bowl. I would use either diet soda, as they do go flat or a clear flavored water or crystal light. As the ring dissolves, pieces of fruit will float in the ice cold punch.
Peace and Blessings, Melinda
