- 2 oz fresh peach puree (from ripe peaches)
- 1 small slice of fresh peach for garnish (optional)

- Slowly top with 4 ounces of chilled Prosecco. Pour gently to maintain the bubbles.
- Garnish each glass with a thin slice of fresh peach placed on the rim or dropped into the drink.

Notes
- For an authentic Italian Bellini, use high-quality, ripe white peaches.
- If fresh peaches are unavailable, use high-quality canned peach halves, pureed, but drain excess syrup first.
- To make this a Strawberry Bellini, substitute the peach puree with fresh strawberry puree.
- For a festive touch, add a splash of raspberry liqueur for a Peach Melba flavor.
- This is a low-alcohol cocktail, ideal for brunch.
