Ingredients
- 3 cups frozen peach slices (about 4 medium peaches, peeled and sliced)
- 1 cup prosecco (chilled)
- 1/4 cup peach schnapps
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons simple syrup (or to taste)
- Fresh peach slices and mint sprigs, for garnish (optional)
Directions
Step 1: Prepare Your Ingredients
Measure out your frozen peach slices, chilled prosecco, peach schnapps, lemon juice, and simple syrup. If you don’t have pre-frozen peaches, slice fresh peaches and freeze them for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Step 2: Blend the Bellini
Add the frozen peaches, prosecco, peach schnapps, lemon juice, and simple syrup into a high-powered blender. Blend on high until smooth and slushy, about 30-45 seconds. Taste for sweetness and add more simple syrup if desired.
Step 3: Serve
Divide the frozen peach bellini mixture evenly among 4 chilled champagne flutes or wine glasses. Garnish each glass with fresh peach slices and mint sprigs if you like. Serve immediately while icy and bubbly!
Notes
- Use very ripe peaches for the most intense flavor and natural sweetness.
- If you like a thicker drink, add a handful of ice cubes before blending.
- Make-ahead tip: you can freeze the finished bellini in an airtight container for up to 30 minutes before serving so it’s ultra-frosty!
Variations
- Berry Bellini: Swap half the peaches for frozen raspberries or strawberries.
- Non-Alcoholic: Replace prosecco and schnapps with sparkling water or ginger ale and peach juice.
- Citrus Twist: Add a splash of orange liqueur or a teaspoon of orange zest for a zesty kick.
Required Equipment
- High-powered blender
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Champagne flutes or wine glasses
- Cutting board and knife (if slicing fresh peaches)
