What You’ll Need
- 2 ounces white peach purée, chilled
- 4 ounces Prosecco, chilled
- 1 slice fresh peach for garnish
Step-by-Step Directions
- Pour the chilled peach purée into the bottom of a chilled champagne flute.
- Slowly add the chilled Prosecco to the flute, tilting the glass slightly to minimize excessive foaming.
- Gently stir the mixture with a long bar spoon once or twice to combine the ingredients while preserving carbonation.

Best Ways to Enjoy

Pair it with salty snacks like almonds or olives. The bubbles cut through the salt perfectly. It also shines alongside a light fruit salad.
Make-Ahead Advice
This drink is best enjoyed immediately after mixing. You can make the peach purée a day in advance. Keep it in a tightly sealed jar in the fridge.
Do not mix the Prosecco until you are ready to serve. The bubbles will fade quickly if left to sit. Always serve in a pre-chilled flute for the best experience.
Tips for Best Results
- Don’t skip chilling your glassware for that extra frosty feel.
- Avoid using warm fruit purée as it will kill the bubbles.
- Substitute frozen peaches if fresh ones are not in season yet.
- Use a long spoon to stir gently from the bottom up.
- Choose a dry Prosecco to balance the sweetness of the peaches.
- Elevate the look by adding a single fresh raspberry to the glass.
Easy Swaps
- Try a non-alcoholic version using sparkling white grape juice.
- Swap white peaches for yellow peaches for a bolder color.
- Add a splash of raspberry juice for a seasonal spring twist.
- Use sparkling water for a lighter, low-alcohol spritz version.
Common Questions
Can I make this for a large crowd?
Yes, you can mix it in a pitcher. Just be very gentle when stirring. Serve it quickly so it stays bubbly.
What if I cannot find white peaches?
Yellow peaches work just as well. They are often easier to find at the market. The flavor will be slightly more tart.
How do I know the Prosecco is good?
Look for a bottle labeled “DOC” or “DOCG”. This ensures quality and authentic Italian bubbles. It makes a big difference in flavor.
I hope this Easy Peach Bellini brings a little extra sparkle to your spring morning. It is the simplest way to make any weekend feel like a special occasion.
