Time 35m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups sugar
1 cup water
3 (16-ounce) bags frozen peaches, thawed
1 teaspoon grated orange peel
4 to 6 (750-ml) bottles Prosecco or other sparkling wine, chilled
Orange peel twists, for garnish

Steps:

  • Stir the sugar and water in a large saucepan over medium heat until the sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Cool completely.
  • Puree the peaches and orange peel in a blender with 1 1/2 cups of the sugar syrup until smooth. Strain through a fine-meshed strainer and into a bowl. Transfer the puree into a pitcher or clear glass bowl.
  • For each serving, pour 2 to 4 tablespoons of the peach puree into a Champagne flute. Slowly pour enough Prosecco into the flute to fill. Gently stir to blend. Garnish each with an orange peel twist, and serve.
  • Do-Ahead Tip: The peach puree can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.

Tips:

  • Use ripe apricots. The riper the apricots, the sweeter and more flavorful your bellini will be.
  • Chill your ingredients. All of the ingredients should be chilled before you make the bellini. This will help to create a refreshing and flavorful drink.
  • Use a good quality Prosecco. The Prosecco is the base of the bellini, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a Prosecco that is dry and has a light, fruity flavor.
  • Don't over-blend the bellini. You just want to blend the ingredients until they are combined. Over-blending will make the bellini too frothy.
  • Serve the bellini immediately. Bellinis are best served immediately after they are made. They will start to lose their fizz and flavor if they sit for too long.

Conclusion:

Traci's Apricot Bellini is a delicious and refreshing cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Whether you're hosting a party or just looking for a special treat, this bellini is sure to please.
