Frozen Peach Bellini
Description
This recipe uses frozen peach slices blended together with Peach Schnapps and granulated sugar to create a smooth, sweet base. Adding Prosecco gives the drink a sparkling quality and light alcohol content. The mixture is blended until uniform and can be poured immediately for a slushy drink or transformed into a granita by freezing and stirring intermittently.
The combination of peach and the sparkling wine brings a bright fruitiness with lively bubbles. The sugar tunes the sweetness to complement natural peach tartness, while the schnapps enhances peach flavor intensity. This cocktail serves well chilled for warm weather enjoyment or casual entertaining.
The recipe notes explain how to freeze the blended mixture in a pan and stir every hour for three hours to achieve granita texture, which can be stored covered for several weeks, offering a convenient frozen treat option.
