Ingredients
These ingredients come together to form a powerhouse of flavor:
-
🍑 2 oz peach purée – fresh or store-bought; thick, juicy, and vibrant
-
🍾 4 oz chilled Prosecco – choose a dry or extra-dry variety
-
🍸 1 oz peach schnapps – deepens the fruity flavor
-
🍋 ½ oz lemon juice (fresh) – balances the sweetness
-
🍬 ½ oz simple syrup (optional) – adjust based on peach ripeness
-
🧊 Ice – if serving over rocks
-
🌿 Optional garnish: fresh peach slice, mint sprig, or edible flowers
Instructions
Step 1: Make your peach purée
If you’re using fresh peaches, peel and pit 2–3 ripe ones. Blend with a splash of water until smooth. Strain for a silkier texture if preferred.
Step 2: Chill your glassware
Pop some Champagne flutes or coupe glasses into the freezer while you prepare the drink.
Step 3: Combine base ingredients
In a shaker (no ice), mix:
-
2 oz peach purée
-
1 oz peach schnapps
-
½ oz lemon juice
-
Optional: ½ oz simple syrup if peaches aren’t sweet enough
Step 4: Shake to mix
You don’t need to shake hard—just enough to blend the ingredients into a uniform mixture.
Step 5: Pour into glass
Add ice to a highball if serving on the rocks, or pour directly into a flute or coupe glass.
Step 6: Top with Prosecco
Slowly pour 4 oz of chilled Prosecco over the mix. Stir gently if serving in a rocks glass.
Step 7: Garnish and serve
Top with a peach slice on the rim, a sprig of mint for contrast, or even a few edible flowers to make it extra fancy.
Notes
This cocktail is very forgiving, but a few key tips ensure it tastes its best:
-
Use ripe, in-season peaches for best flavor and natural sweetness
-
Don’t overshake or carbonate too hard—it can kill the fizz
-
Always pour Prosecco slowly to preserve the bubbles
