Peach Bellini Cocktail
Serves 6
We love Peach-O-Rama Peaches for fresh Peach Bellini. Invented at Harrys' bar in Venice, Italy, the original Bellini is a strained peach purée with sparkling Prosecco. You can also use a coarser purée if you like it chunkier, OR try our very rustic Seattle version with sliced super-ripe peaches, torn basil leaves, and sparkling wine, inspired by memorable summer evenings on Puget Sound.
Ingredients
- 2 ripe peaches, peeled and chopped (about 2 cups)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice, plus more to taste
- 2 teaspoons granulated sugar, plus more to taste
- 1 (750 ml) bottle prosecco or other sparkling wine, chilled
Directions
- Place peaches in food processor or blender. Add lemon juice and sugar. Blend to make a purée. Taste and adjust lemon and sugar, to preference.
- If desired, press peach pulp through a strainer into a bowl. Discard solids.
- To serve, place 2 tablespoons purée into each champagne glass. Top with prosecco or sparkling wine. Garnish each with a fresh mint sprig or slice of peach.
