Peach Bellini Mocktail: Purée and Sparkling Wine
A peach Bellini mocktail combines smooth peach purée with non-alcoholic sparkling wine.
A peach Bellini mocktail combines smooth peach purée with non-alcoholic sparkling wine. Texture matters: thick purée settles, while too much juice creates a thinner fruit spritz.
The quantities make one serving. Measure the ingredients before mixing and chill any mixer. Syrups, juices and bottled alternatives vary in sweetness and acidity, so taste the base before topping up.
Ingredients for one serving
- 50 g smooth peach purée
- 100 ml non-alcoholic sparkling wine
- 5 ml lemon juice if needed
- Peach slice for garnish
Method
- Chill the purée and glass.
- Add purée and loosen it with a small splash of sparkling wine.
- Slowly add the remaining wine in two stages.
- Mix gently and add a little lemon if needed.
Getting the balance right
Carbonation can foam on contact with purée. Slow pouring prevents overflow and distributes fruit more evenly. Use ripe, stoned peaches and sieve fibrous purée. Peeled fruit gives a finer texture, while the skin can add colour.
Variation and substitutions
Without sparkling wine, use 80 ml soda and 20 ml white grape juice. Apricot purée makes a distinctly different fruit variation. Sweet purée usually needs no additional syrup.
Preparing several servings
Measure juice, purée and syrup shortly before serving. Add ice and carbonated ingredients when you make the drink. To serve a group, multiply the quantities, but adjust one glass first before mixing the whole pitcher.
Common question
Does peach nectar work?
Yes, but the drink will be thinner. Start with 50 ml nectar and adjust the remaining liquid rather than expecting a purée texture.
