Tip!

If you are having a hard time finding peach puree, you can also use high quality peach juice or another fruit puree. A classic Bellini has peach liquor as a top layer.

Ingredients

1 part peach puree
2 parts Prosecco or another sparkling wine
1 pinch of edible, nontoxic, dried or fresh lavender

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    1. Place the puree in the bottom of a champagne glass.

    Step 2

    2. Carefully pour in the sparkling wine.

    Step 3

    3. Don't stir, but use a spoon to pull the puree up along thesides of the glass, so that you won't lose the bubbles.

    Step 4

    4. Decorate with the lavender.
