Notes
Tips for Making a Bellini Spritz
- Chill prosecco, sparkling water and peach puree.
- Peel peaches before blending and you can skip the straining step.
Peach Puree Notes and Tips
- Fresh peach puree definitely has the best flavor, especially when peaches are in season. Bellinis are traditionally made with white peaches, but ripe yellow peaches also work well. If you can’t find great peaches, you have other options.
- Frozen peaches are a great alternative—just fully defrost before blending. If using frozen fruit, you may not need to add water.
- If you want to skip the blending step, bottled peach nectar is also an option. Peach nectar often has added sweetener so you may need to play with the quantity to find the perfect flavor ratio.
