3. Step-by-step Instructions to Make the Perfect Frozen Peach Bellini
Prepare the Peaches
Start by washing and peeling your fresh peaches. Remove the pit and cut them into small chunks. If using canned peaches, drain the syrup and chop as needed. Blend the peaches with peach nectar and honey until smooth. For an extra chilled drink, add a handful of ice cubes to the blender.
Blend the Cocktail Base
In a high-speed blender, combine the peach mixture with ice and blend until smooth and frosty. The texture should resemble a thick, slushy consistency that’s perfect for a frozen cocktail.
Layer the Frozen Bellini
Pour a small amount of chilled prosecco into glasses, then carefully add the peach slush on top. The combination creates a beautiful layered effect. To avoid losing the fizz, pour gently and slowly.
Garnish and Serve
Finish with a peach slice and a sprig of fresh mint. Serve immediately with a straw or stir gently before drinking to mix the layers. Enjoy the crisp, fruity flavors of your Frozen Peach Bellini.
4. Tips for the Best Frozen Peach Bellini
- Use very cold sparkling wine and peaches for an optimal chill.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less honey according to your preference.
- If you prefer a less icy texture, simply reduce the amount of ice cubes before blending.
- Experiment with different sparkling wines or Prosecco brands for varied flavor profiles.
5. How to Store Leftover Ingredients
If you have leftover peach puree, store it in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 months. You can also keep extra sparkling wine chilled separately to prepare more cocktails later.
