Brunch isn't complete without a mimosa! Try this tasty, tropical twist that uses freshly diced pineapple instead of orange juice, and you'll be hooked! I like to use Prosecco or Cava but feel free to use champagne. Adjust the pineapple puree to wine ratio to suit your tastes.

Steps:
- Combine mango, 1/2 cup sugar, lemon juice, and salt in a food processor; puree until smooth. Add egg yolks; process for 15 seconds.
- Pour mango mixture through a sieve set over a large metal bowl, pressing on solids with the back of a spatula to release as much puree as possible. Discard solids in sieve.
- Fill a large saucepan with 2 inches of water; bring to a simmer. Set metal bowl on top; whisk puree until thickened and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 170 degrees F (77 degrees C), about 10 minutes.
- Place metal bowl on a towel on a flat work surface. Whisk in butter 1 piece at a time until blended. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
- Combine milk and coconut pudding mix in a saucepan. Bring to boil, stirring constantly until thickened. Remove from heat; fold in grated coconut and vanilla extract. Refrigerate until set, about 1 hour.
- Beat heavy cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Add 1/4 cup sugar gradually, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form.
- Place 1/2 of the pound cake cubes in the bottom of a large trifle bowl. Layer some of the bananas, pineapple, and strawberries on top. Spoon 1/2 of the mango puree and coconut pudding on top. Repeat layers with remaining pound cake, bananas, pineapple, strawberries, mango puree, and coconut pudding.

Tips:
- Prepare the ingredients in advance: Cut the fruits and prepare the other ingredients before assembling the trifle. This will make the process quicker and easier.
- Use fresh fruits: Fresh fruits will give the trifle the best flavor and texture. If you can't find fresh pineapple, you can use canned pineapple, but be sure to drain it well before using.
- Don't over-mix the ingredients: When folding the whipped cream into the yogurt mixture, be careful not to over-mix. Otherwise, the cream will lose its fluffy texture.
- Chill the trifle before serving: This will help the trifle set and make it easier to slice.
Conclusion:
This tropical trifle is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own preferences. With its layers of fresh fruits, creamy yogurt, and fluffy whipped cream, this trifle is sure to be a hit with everyone.
