Peach Bellini
When I moved in with David, he took me to one of his favorite spots which is a Canadian-owned chain called Cactus Club. Right away, I loved the place. It’s eclectic and a fun place to dine. Once, we decided to sit at the bar before dinner and order a couple cocktails. That is when I had my first Peach Bellini! A couple days later, I was making one at home…
This drink is an “OMG”! To me, this is among the perfect drinks to enjoy on a hot summer day. Do I use the exact ingredients found in the one served at the restaurant? Nope, but I can assure you that it tastes magnificent! Peaches, Prosecco wine although Champagne is a great alternative, peach Schnapps which intensifies the flavor and white rum – don’t use dark, it’s not the right stuff for this – along with some grenadine is what goes into my take of this Peach Bellini. It’s simply amazing!
The consistency of this cocktail should be more on the slushy side than liquid. Three cups if ice cubes is used for this and if you own one of those big blenders like a Ninja or Vitamix, you’ll have more space than mine. Surprisingly though, I still managed with my 6 cup blender… it’s just a little tight.
For looks, I like to add a few drops of grenadine at the bottom of the martini glasses, pour in the “slushy” mixture and then drizzle more grenadine around the edge of the glass… it makes it prettier. Can you skip the grenadine? Absolutely but why… really!
Summer is a fun time so let’s make some fun drinks like White Sangria, Mixed Berry Margarita, Blackberry Mojito or this delicious and refreshing Peach Bellini! It’s easy to make and a beautiful cocktail to enjoy with your friends. It goes down so smoothly therefore remember to drink responsibly…
Cheers!
