A white peach at Harry’s Bar
Cipriani dates Giuseppe Cipriani’s Bellini to 1948 and describes his experiments with puréed white peaches and Prosecco. The drink was named for the Venetian painter Giovanni Bellini.
Try it in the kitchen
The Prosecco DOC consortium’s Bellini uses white-peach purée and wine, stirred gently. Our suggestion: start with the matched recipe, letting the peach remain the named fruit rather than quietly replacing it with another purée.
