Strawberry bellini
Description
The Strawberry Bellini is a cocktail that uses pureed strawberries mixed with sparkling prosecco. By straining the strawberry mixture to eliminate seeds, it achieves a smooth consistency, which gently combines with the bubbly texture of prosecco. The sugar addition is flexible to match the sweetness of the strawberries, allowing customization of flavor balance.
Its lightly fruity and effervescent quality makes it suitable for brunches or celebratory occasions. The drink is prepared by layering the strawberry puree and then topping with prosecco, which is stirred gently to mix without losing carbonation.
The puree can be made ahead and chilled, permitting convenient preparation. It is intended for adults and should be consumed responsibly.
Ingredients
- 8 oz strawberries (8oz gives approx ⅔ cup/160ml puree)
- 2 teaspoon sugar approx, to taste (can exclude if strawberries are sweeter)
- 6 fl oz prosecco approx
Instructions
- Blend the strawberries until smooth then strain through a very fine sieve or cheesecloth to get as many of the seeds out as possible. Add the sugar, half at a time, tasting to see if it's roughly the sweetness you'd want then add more as needed.
- Divide the strawberry puree between two glasses, filling up to a little under halfway. Top the glasses with prosecco, a little at a time as it will bubble up a lot. Gently stir to mix and serve.
Notes
- The strawberry puree can be prepared in advance and refrigerated for a few hours before serving.
- This cocktail is intended for adults aged 21 and older; please consume responsibly.
