Peach Bellini Cocktail

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 puree with sparkling Prosecco. You can also use a coarser puree 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

  1. 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.
  2. If desired, press peach pulp through a strainer into a bowl. Discard solids.
  3. 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.
