COCKTAIL RECIPE
Peach Bellini
Peach Bellini is an elegant, fruity and low-alcohol classic Italian cocktail made with fresh peach puree and prosecco.
The Peach Bellini cocktail is an elegant classic cocktail that originated at the famous Harry's Bar in Venice, Italy. This cocktail was created in the 1940s by the bar's founder and famous bartender Giuseppe Cipriani.
Giuseppe Cipriani wanted to make a light and refreshing drink in the summer, when fresh peaches are at their most delicious. He pureed the peaches and mixed them with Prosecco, the famous sparkling wine of the Venetian region. The result is a cocktail that is both aromatic and elegant.
The name of the cocktail comes from an interesting art reference. Cipriani thought that the pale pink color of the drink reminded of the tones in the paintings of the famous Renaissance painter Giovanni Bellini. That's why he named the cocktail Bellini.
