Easter gatherings are all about bringing people together, whether that’s a relaxed brunch, a long lunch with family or an afternoon spent grazing on chocolate and sweet treats.
When you’re hosting, drinks don’t need to be complicated to feel special. A well-thought-out Easter drinks table filled with bright citrus flavours, floral notes and refreshing spring serves can elevate the whole occasion.
From simple luxury lemonades to celebratory spritzes and alcohol-free options, these easy serves will help you create a drinks spread that looks impressive while remaining effortless to prepare.
1. The Star of the Show: Chocolate Orange Jigger Spritz
Chocolate and orange is one of Easter’s most iconic flavour combinations, so it’s only natural that it makes a brilliant cocktail too.
This spritz pairs Italian aperitif with Fentimans Mandarin & Seville Orange Jigger for a drink that feels celebratory without being overly heavy. The citrus brightness cuts through rich chocolate desserts, making it a perfect companion for Easter treats.
Ingredients
- 100ml Fentimans Mandarin & Seville Orange Jigger
- 50ml Aperol
- 1.25ml Chocolate bitters
- Segment of chocolate orange to garnish
- Optional: Splash of prosecco for fizz
Method
- Fill a wine glass with ice.
- Add the chocolate bitters and Aperol.
- Top with Mandarin & Seville Orange Jigger.
- Add some Prosecco if desired.
- Garnish with a slice of chocolate orange.
2. Effortless and Elegant: Victorian Lemonade on Ice
Not every Easter drink needs to be mixed. Sometimes the simplest serves are the most refreshing, especially when made with well-crafted ingredients.
Fentimans Victorian Lemonade contains the juice of around one and a half lemons in every bottle, delivering a crisp, citrus-forward flavour that’s naturally refreshing.
Serve it chilled over ice with a slice of lemon or fresh mint and you have a beautifully simple drink that works for guests of all ages.
3. A Bright Spring Refresher: Rhubarb Lemonade
If you’re looking for a drink that feels instantly seasonal, rhubarb is hard to beat.
Fentimans Rhubarb Lemonade combines real British rhubarb juice with lemon to create a bright, gently tart drink with a refreshing citrus finish.
Its vibrant colour also makes it a natural centrepiece for an Easter drinks table.
Serve simply over ice with fresh strawberries or a slice of orange for a drink that feels both nostalgic and perfectly suited to spring.
4. Floral Mocktail: Rose Lemonade Spritz
Easter tables often feature lighter spring dishes and desserts, which pair beautifully with delicate floral flavours.
Fentimans Rose Lemonade, made with real rose oil and lemon juice, offers a fragrant aroma and refreshing citrus balance that works wonderfully in simple mocktails.
Ingredients
- 150ml Fentimans Rose Lemonade
- 50ml Alcohol-free Prosecco
- Fresh strawberries to garnish
Method
- Fill a large wine glass with ice.
- Pour in Rose Lemonade and Prosecco (or Nosecco).
- Add strawberries to garnish.
5. Hosting Secret: Create a Lemonade Stand
If you’re entertaining a group, one of the easiest ways to impress guests is to create a self-serve drinks station. Simply place bottles of luxury lemonades on ice with a selection of garnishes so guests can build their own drinks.
Try offering:
- Victorian Lemonade with lemon slices and mint
