Just in time for Mother’s Day brunch, Natalie Tapken, the wine and beverage director for Bluepoint Hospitality in Easton, Maryland, nods to her Texas roots—and memories of her mom—by riffing on a classic French 75. “After brunch at Fonda San Miguel in Austin, we would go home, and Mom would make us a limeade punch,” Tapken says. “What I call a Mexican 75 marries my fond childhood memories and my wine life today.” Plus tequila and bubbles. “I love putting Champagne into any beverage I work with, even if it is just a splash.”
