There was once a time when I would say that nothing beats an ice-cold beer on the weekend. Fast-forward to now and that tune has completely changed – whether it's a mimosa or a Bloody mary, there are several other ways to treat your tastebuds on the weekend.

While at home with the family, I was scrolling through the old timeline when I stumbled across probably one of the best “Suggested Posts for You” that I have ever seen. It appeared to be a gargantuan mimosa that can be found right here in Meridian. No, seriously, when I saw this thing at Homestead Bar & Grill, I could feel my mouth watering and that’s not even the beginning of the magnificence that this place offers:

Look at that thing! If you ever wanted to know what a “good time” in a glass looks like, that’s it right there. Sunshine in a cup, baby, the breakfast of champions. Here’s where it gets crazy – Homestead Bar & Grill also features a Bloody Mary that will absolutely rock your world. If mimosas are sunshine in a cup, the Blood Mary is the actual sun that rests upon the rim of your glass.
