Equipment

  • Equipment Needed: Blender, fine mesh strainer, champagne flutes

Ingredients
  

  • Ingredients
  • For the Bellini:
  • 2 ripe peaches pitted and sliced (about 2 cups)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger peeled and grated
  • 1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup optional, based on sweetness preference
  • 1 cup of sparkling wine or prosecco chilled
  • Garnish optional:
  • Fresh mint leaves
  • Peach slices

Instructions
 

  • Method
  • Prepare the Peaches:
  • Start by washing and slicing the peaches. You can leave the skin on for added flavor and nutrition, or peel them if you prefer a smoother texture.
  • Blend:
  • In a blender, combine the peach slices, grated ginger, and honey (if using). Blend until smooth. This should take about 30 seconds to a minute.
  • Strain:
  • Pour the peach mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a bowl or pitcher. Use a spatula to press the mixture down, extracting as much juice as possible. This step is essential for a smooth Bellini.
  • Mix with Sparkling Wine:
  • In a champagne flute, fill it about halfway with the peach and ginger puree. Then, gently top it off with the chilled sparkling wine or prosecco. Stir gently to combine.
  • Garnish:
  • Add a fresh mint leaf or a slice of peach on top for a beautiful presentation.
  • Serve and Enjoy:
  • Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing burst of flavors!
  • Variations
  • Berry Bellini: Substitute peaches with strawberries or raspberries for a berry twist.
  • Herbal Twist: Add a few basil leaves to the peach mixture before blending for an aromatic kick.
  • Non-Alcoholic Version: Replace sparkling wine with sparkling water for a refreshing mocktail.
