Peach Bellini Recipe (Cancer: The Stable-ini)

Peach Bellini Recipe (Cancer: The Stable-ini)

Every Cancer knows comfort is a love language, and this fresh peach bellini is exactly that: warm, welcoming, and made to share. Our Stable-ini skips the overly sweet nectar and artificial peach liqueur in favor of ripe white peaches and chilled prosecco, so even the moodiest Cancer perks right up. It is a simple two-ingredient peach bellini that tastes like a hug in a flute. Here is how to make it.

Ingredients

  • 4 oz Prosecco, chilled, such as Sensi Prosecco (750Ml) (a dry Brut keeps the peach from turning cloying)
  • 2 oz fresh white peach puree (from ripe, seasonal peaches)

How to Prepare

  1. Blanch fresh peaches in boiling water for about 20 seconds, then move them straight to an ice bath. Starting from an "X" incision at the base, peel, halve, and pit them.
  2. Blend the peach halves until completely smooth, then chill the puree for 30 minutes.
  3. Pour 2 oz of chilled peach puree into a champagne flute, then add the prosecco slowly so it does not overflow. Stir gently to combine.
  4. Top with a splash more prosecco and garnish with a peach slice or a strawberry.
  5. Serve immediately, while your peach bellini is cold and lively.

What Is a Peach Bellini?

A bellini is a Venetian sparkling cocktail invented at Harry's Bar in Venice, traditionally white peach puree and Prosecco. Our Stable-ini is that classic, made with fresh peaches for a brighter, more natural flavor.

Fresh Peach Puree vs. Store-Bought

Ripe white peaches give the sweetest, most fragrant puree and beat nectar or frozen concentrate for flavor. A peach is ready when it smells fragrant and gives slightly to a gentle squeeze. When fresh peaches are out of season, good frozen peaches work; just thaw and blend.

Best Prosecco for a Peach Bellini

Reach for a chilled dry Brut Prosecco. Over-sweet sparkling wine tips the drink into cloying territory, while a dry, crisp bubbly keeps it balanced and refreshing.

Make-Ahead and Batch Tips

Make and chill the peach puree a day ahead, then assemble to order so the bubbles stay lively. For brunch, set out the puree and a cold bottle of Prosecco and let guests build their own.
