Raise a glass to la dolce vita with our irresistible peach Bellini drink. This classic Venetian spritz is a breeze to make - all you need is tinned peach halves in syrup and a generous pour of bubbly Prosecco. With each sip, you’ll be whisked away to sun-drenched Italian terraces, and the best bit is, you don’t need your passport!
Bellini cocktails are Italy’s delicious answer to the mimosa, a sweet, fruity, and refreshingly effervescent cocktail that’s as perfect for brunch as it is for celebrations. The traditional Bellini cocktail recipe combines freshly-made white peach purée and Prosecco, but our version uses convenient tinned peaches for year-round peachiness and a luscious syrupy twist. Simply blitz the peaches and syrup into a silky purée, spoon into champagne flutes, and top with chilled Prosecco. Give it a gentle stir and watch the bubbles rise - three cheers to instant elegance!
The story of Bellini cocktails is as colourful as the drink itself. Invented in 1948 at Venice’s legendary Harry’s Bar by Giuseppe Cipriani, the cocktail was named for the rosy hues in Renaissance painter Giovanni Bellini’s masterpieces. The original Bellini cocktail recipe was a seasonal treat, but thanks to tinned peaches, you can enjoy this blushing beauty at home all year round!
Whether you’re toasting a special occasion or just want to bring some sparkle to your day, this peach Bellini drink is a fizzy, fruity classic that’s always in season. And if you’re looking for some more arty alternatives, a Puccini replaces peach puree with mandarin or tangerine juice, a Rossini uses pureed strawberries, and if you fancy the flavour of pomegranate, it’s a Tintoretto. Cheers!
