Matriarchal March Mopomoso

Hello, & a very warm March Matriarchal Mopomoso welcome to today’s special instalment of Mopomoso TV!

Maggie Nicols (https://www.cafeoto.co.uk/artists/maggie-nicols/) will be joining us for this month as an introducer and all-round iconic woman!

Maria Sappho (https://www.mariasappho.com/) has weaved together this awesome episode of Mopomoso TV & also features as an introducer alongside Maggie & the rest of the Mopomoso Team!

Mopomoso Team’s Charlotte Keeffe recommends this Mopomoso Matriarchal Venus moptail:

Drop a few ice cubes into your favourite glass, add a big splash of prosecco & elderflower cordial, or just elderflower cordial, fill 75% of your glass up with blood orange juice, maybe a splash of aperol too, get the taste you want by adding a little more elderflower cordial, &/or prosecco and then complete your drink by adding soda water, serve with big a slice of orange on the side…
