A Peach Bellini brings the sweet taste of summer to any celebration. This classic Italian cocktail mixes fresh peach puree with crisp Prosecco for a light and refreshing drink.

The perfect Peach Bellini combines 3 ounces of chilled Prosecco with 2 ounces of fresh peach puree, served in a champagne flute.

The drink started at Harry’s Bar in Venice, Italy during the 1940s. The rosy color reminded the owner of a pink toga in a painting by Giovanni Bellini, and the name stuck. Now people enjoy this sparkly cocktail at brunches and parties across the world.

The key to making great Peach Bellinis lies in using ripe, sweet peaches.

When peaches aren’t in season, good quality frozen peaches work well too.

The recipe takes just 5 minutes to prepare and creates enough for 4-6 servings.

Serving Size

Equipment

Champagne flutes
Blender

Fine-mesh strainer
Measuring spoons
Small funnel

Bar spoon
Peach pitter (optional)

Ingredients

2 ripe peaches pitted and sliced

1 bottle 750ml chilled Prosecco
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon sugar optional

Ice cubes for chilling
For garnish optional:
Fresh peach slices

Fresh mint leaves

Instructions

Add peach slices to a blender with lemon juice and sugar. Blend until smooth.
Strain the peach puree through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl. This removes any pulp.

Fill each champagne flute 1/4 full with the peach puree.
Tilt the glass slightly and slowly pour cold Prosecco until the glass is full.
Stir gently with a bar spoon to combine the puree and Prosecco.

Add garnish if desired and serve right away.

Notes

Store extra peach puree in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.

Frozen peaches work well when fresh ones aren’t in season. Thaw them completely before blending.

The sugar amount can be adjusted based on the sweetness of the peaches.

For best results, chill both the peach puree and Prosecco before mixing.

Tasting Notes

A Peach Bellini made with Prosecco offers a bright, fruity taste with gentle bubbles that dance on the tongue. The peach puree brings sweet, summery notes that blend smoothly with the crisp sparkling wine.

The aroma features fresh peach scents mixed with light floral hints from the Prosecco.

Each sip starts with the natural sweetness of ripe peaches followed by the clean, dry finish of the sparkling wine.

This cocktail has a silky texture from the pureed peaches while maintaining its refreshing effervescence. The pale peachy-pink color makes it visually appealing for brunch or celebrations.

Flavor Profile:

Primary: Sweet peach
Secondary: Light citrus

Finish: Crisp, bubbly

The drink’s sweetness level can vary based on the ripeness of the peaches used. When made with perfectly ripe fruit, extra sugar is not needed.

Temperature affects the taste experience. Serve this cocktail well-chilled at 38-45°F (3-7°C) for the best balance of flavors and bubbles.

Substitute

No peaches or prosecco on hand? Don’t worry – you can still make a tasty bellini-style drink with these alternatives.

Fruit Options:

Frozen peach slices instead of fresh peaches

Canned peaches in light syrup (drained)
Nectarines or apricots
Peach nectar or juice

Sparkling Wine Alternatives:

Cava (Spanish sparkling wine)
Champagne

Other dry sparkling wines
Non-alcoholic sparkling cider or grape juice

For a non-alcoholic version, mix peach puree with sparkling water or lemon-lime soda. This creates a refreshing mocktail that everyone can enjoy.

The drink will taste best with real peaches and prosecco. But these substitutes can work in a pinch when the original ingredients aren’t available.

When using any substitutes, keep the same 2:1 ratio of sparkling wine to fruit puree. This ensures the proper balance of flavors in your drink.
