I know some people prefer pancakes or waffles for breakfast &#8211; but I\u2019m all about something savory! Perhaps I overdosed on double chocolate chip muffins as a kid and ever since I\u2019ve only craved savory foods in the morning. Whatever the reason, it means that Pizza Party Brunches are acceptable and I\u2019m going with it! We\u2019re <b><i>living<\/i><\/b> guys!! Buckle up. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">You need a few things when it comes to pizza party brunching. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">1 &#8211; a slew of beverages. Duh. Any good brunch comes complete with dranks! \ud83d\ude42 Palm Breeze keeps it light and refreshing and pairs perfectly with pizza! Plus, all you need to do to prep them is keep it on ice! Or if you\u2019re feeling really generous and want to whip up some cocktails &#8211; try making my <a href=\"https:\/\/dev.afterhoursagency.com\/wgc\/sparkling-pineapple-spritz\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sparkling Pineapple Spritz<\/a> from a few months ago!<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-23401\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/GA9A9098.jpg\" alt=\"GA9A9098\" width=\"870\" height=\"1160\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/GA9A9098.jpg 870w, https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/GA9A9098-450x600.jpg 450w, https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/GA9A9098-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 870px) 100vw, 870px\" \/> <img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-23415\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/GA9A9014.jpg\" alt=\"GA9A9014\" width=\"870\" height=\"1160\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/GA9A9014.jpg 870w, https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/GA9A9014-450x600.jpg 450w, https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/GA9A9014-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 870px) 100vw, 870px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">2 &#8211; a pizza oven is 100 percent encouraged although not mandatory. I\u2019m lucky enough to be best friends with people who have a pizza oven, but when I\u2019m hosting at home, I\u2019ll just whip these all up on the BBQ or in the oven!
