When I want to serve something light and refreshing, I make my Peach and Rosemary Prosecco Cocktail.
This simple recipe combines sweet peach, herbal rosemary, and bubbly prosecco for a crisp drink that stands out at any gathering.
It’s the perfect choice for a summer brunch or a quiet evening on the patio.
I love how the peach brings gentle sweetness.

With minimal prep and just a few ingredients, I can enjoy a drink that tastes like it belongs at a fancy restaurant.

Tasting Notes
When I take my first sip, the sweetness of fresh peach stands out.
There’s a gentle fruitiness that makes the drink taste light and refreshing.
Rosemary is subtle but noticeable, giving the cocktail a herbal aroma.
It doesn’t overpower the fruit but adds a nice complexity and depth.
The prosecco’s light bubbles give the drink a crisp texture.
I notice the balance between the sparkling wine and the juicy peach.
The aftertaste is clean.
I feel a soft, fruity finish with a slight hint of rosemary remaining on my palate.
If I serve it cold, the flavors are brighter.
Each sip remains balanced and easy to enjoy.
Substitute
If I don’t have peach purée handy, I’ll reach for other fruit purées like mango or apricot. They’re sweet enough and get pretty close to the vibe I want.
Canned peaches, blended up until they’re smooth, actually work surprisingly well too.
Here are some ingredient substitutes I often use:
- Rosemary: Out of rosemary? I’ll swap in thyme or even basil—each gives its own spin on the herbal note.
- Prosecco: If Prosecco’s missing from my fridge, any sparkling wine like Cava or Champagne does the trick. For a booze-free option, sparkling water or non-alcoholic bubbly is totally fine.
- Peach liqueur: No peach liqueur? I’ll go with apricot liqueur, or maybe orange if that’s what I’ve got.
Equipment alternatives:
- Blender: Don’t have a blender? I just mash the fruit by hand, or pull out the food processor if I’m feeling fancy.
- Cocktail shaker: Sometimes I can’t find my shaker, so I’ll use a jar with a tight lid. Works in a pinch.
How I adjust the instructions:
- Honestly, stirring instead of shaking is fine if you don’t have a shaker. No big deal.
- With canned fruit, I always drain the syrup before blending. Otherwise, it gets way too sweet.
- If I’m using sparkling water, I make sure to add it at the very end so the cocktail stays fizzy. Flat drinks? No thanks.
