Notes
Prosecco Quantity: The traditional Bellini recipe suggests a ratio of one part peach puree to two parts Prosecco. For one cocktail, you might use around 2 ounces (60 ml) of peach puree and 4 ounces (120 ml) of Prosecco.
Therefore, the amount of Prosecco you'll need will depend on how much peach puree you get from your two peaches. On average, two medium-sized peaches might yield around 4 to 6 ounces of puree (120-180 ml), which would make 2-3 Bellini cocktails when mixed with the appropriate amount of Prosecco.
Remember to serve immediately to enjoy the Bellini at its freshest, and adjust quantities as per your personal preference and the sweetness of the peaches. Cheers!
