A Bellini, commonly called a peach bellini, is a combination of white peach puree (or nectar) and Prosecco. Served in a champagne flute and garnished with a fresh peach wedge, it's a wonderful summer cocktail and perfect for brunch.
Pour the peach puree into a champagne flute. Chilling the glasses first is an added bonus, but not necessary.
Now simply top off the glass. Slowly pour the Prosecco in until the glass is full.
Give the mixture a gently stir and garnish the glass with a peach wedge.
Notes
How to make homemade peach puree
Peach nectar comes in cans and juice box size containers and can be found at stores like Target and Walmart. However, if you prefer, you can make your own peach puree.
In your food processor, drop two pitted fresh, ripe peaches. Add a tablespoon of lemon juice and a teaspoon or two of sugar. Process until smooth and strain through a fine mesh sieve.
Refrigerate puree, or if you want to save it even longer you can freeze it in ice cube trays.
Making a Frozen Bellini
Combine 3 parts frozen peaches and 1 part peach puree in a blender. Process until smooth.
Add frozen mixture to champagne flutes until half full.
