Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup fresh white peach puree
- 3 ounces chilled Prosecco or dry sparkling wine
- 1 teaspoon peach liqueur (optional)
Instructions
- Chill your Prosecco thoroughly before starting.
- If using fresh peaches, peel, pit, and blend them until smooth to create the puree. Strain the puree for a smoother texture if desired.
- For the classic version, pour 1/2 cup of peach puree into a chilled champagne flute.
- Slowly top the puree with 3 ounces of chilled Prosecco.
- Gently stir once to combine the ingredients without losing too much carbonation.
- If you want a slightly sweeter drink, add 1 teaspoon of peach liqueur before adding the Prosecco.
- For a frozen Bellini, blend the peach puree with 1/2 cup of ice until smooth, pour into a glass, and top with Prosecco.
Notes
- Use high-quality, ripe white peaches for the best flavor in your puree.
- If fresh peaches are unavailable, use high-quality canned white peach halves, drained well, or store-bought peach nectar.
- Chill your glassware in the freezer for 10 minutes before serving for an extra cold drink.
- For a Strawberry Bellini variation, substitute the peach puree with fresh strawberry puree.
