Bellini Cocktails Instructions
Bellini cocktails are a popular drink choice for those seeking a refreshing and fruity option. This delicious cocktail is made with a combination of fresh peach puree and sparkling wine, creating a light and bubbly beverage that is perfect for any occasion.
To make a Bellini cocktail, start by preparing the peach puree. Choose ripe and juicy peaches and remove the skin and pit. Place the peaches in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Alternatively, you can use store-bought peach puree if you prefer.
Once you have your peach puree ready, it's time to mix the cocktail. In a champagne flute or a similar glass, pour about two tablespoons of the peach puree. Then, slowly pour the sparkling wine over the puree, filling the glass to the top. The peach puree will mix with the bubbles, creating a beautiful and delicious cocktail.
You can garnish your Bellini cocktail with a slice of fresh peach or a mint leaf for an extra touch of elegance. Serve chilled and enjoy this fruity and refreshing drink. It's a perfect choice for brunches, parties, or simply to unwind and relax.
Best served in a Beer Mug.

Bellini Cocktails: A Delicious and Refreshing Italian Classic
If you're looking for a delicious and refreshing cocktail to enjoy on a warm summer day, look no further than the Bellini. This classic Italian cocktail is made with just two simple ingredients – Prosecco and peach puree – but packs a flavorful punch that will leave you wanting more.
Origins of the Bellini Cocktail
The Bellini cocktail has its origins in Venice, Italy, where it was created at Harry's Bar in the 1930s. The drink was named after Giovanni Bellini, a famous Venetian painter known for his use of soft pastel colors – much like the pale pink hue of the cocktail itself.
How to Make a Bellini Cocktail
Making a Bellini cocktail is incredibly easy. Start by adding about 2 tablespoons of peach puree to a chilled champagne flute. You can make your own peach puree by blending fresh or frozen peaches until smooth. Next, slowly pour in chilled Prosecco until the glass is almost full. Give it a gentle stir to mix the flavors together, and garnish with a slice of fresh peach if desired.
Tips for Serving
For best results, be sure to chill both your Prosecco and your glasses before making your Bellinis. This will help keep your cocktails nice and cold without watering them down with ice cubes.
Variations on the Classic Recipe
While traditional Bellinis are made with peach puree, there are plenty of variations you can try if you want to mix things up. Some popular options include using other fruits such as strawberries or raspberries instead of peaches or adding a splash of flavored liqueur like Chambord or St-Germain for an extra kick.
In conclusion, the Bellini cocktail is an easy-to-make yet elegant drink that is perfect for any occasion. Whether you're sipping one poolside on vacation or enjoying one at home with friends, this classic Italian beverage is sure to please even the most discerning palate.
