I thought I'd take a detour from reviewing a wine to providing a recipe. For one of my tastings on Easter weekend I poured Lunetta Prosecco. Because of the holiday, family gatherings, and brunches I not only poured the Lunetta Prosecco, but I brought my pitcher and made Bellini's. Bellini is a peach version of cocktails prepared with sparkling wines. It is Italian in origin, so what better ingredient than Prosecco (although truth be told I also use Cava and sparkling wine).
Bellini
3 c.
Prosecco
1½ c.
Peach Nectar
½ c.
simple syrup or to taste
Combine
all ingredients in a large pitcher or punch bowl. Serve in glasses filled
with ice.
Simple Syrup
In a small saucepan put equal parts sugar and water. Bring to a boil and stir until sugar is dissolved. Let cool. Pour into a glass container and put in the refrigerator. Use as needed.
