Both Easter and Mother's Day are on the horizon, and they have us digging into our recipe database to come up with the perfect dishes to serve our friends and families. Should we go classic or Greek Easter? Does Mom want breakfast in bed or a patio party? One thing's for sure: Both parties will welcome a cocktail. This bubbly one celebrates spring's first crop of strawberries. Invest in some good brandy and Champagne and use it all up--for Easter lunch, for Mother's Day brunch, and for yourself. Now.
