How to make a Bellini

Stir it in a white wine glass. About 5 minutes.

  1. Chill a white wine glass before preparing the drink.
  2. Pour 50 ml of peach puree into a mixing glass with ice.
  3. Add 100 ml of Prosecco to the mixing glass.
  4. Stir gently to combine the ingredients while preserving the carbonation.
  5. Strain the mixture into the chilled white wine glass.

Bartender’s tips

  • Use fresh white peaches for the puree to achieve the most authentic flavor and color.
  • If Prosecco is unavailable, you can substitute it with Champagne or another dry sparkling wine.
  • Make sure both the Prosecco and the peach puree are thoroughly chilled before mixing to keep the drink cold without adding ice to the glass.
