Print Recipe

A bright and bubbly summer cocktail featuring fresh peaches, raspberries, and sparkling wine, perfect for any occasion and easy to prepare.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium fresh peaches, peeled and pitted
  • 1/2 cup fresh raspberries
  • 1 bottle sparkling wine (Prosecco or dry Champagne), chilled
  • 1–2 tablespoons simple syrup (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)
  • Ice cubes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the fruit puree by peeling and pitting the peaches. To peel easily, score a small “X” on the bottom of each peach and blanch them in boiling water for about 30 seconds, then plunge into ice water to remove skins.
  2. Add peeled peaches and fresh raspberries to a blender and puree for about 30 seconds until smooth and creamy. Optionally, strain the puree through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds.
  3. Stir in 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice and simple syrup to taste, starting with 1 tablespoon.
  4. Chill the fruit puree in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes.
  5. Pour chilled sparkling wine into each champagne flute about two-thirds full, pouring gently down the side of the glass.
  6. Add about 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of chilled fruit puree to each glass, allowing it to float and swirl with the bubbles.
  7. Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint or a raspberry on the rim and serve immediately.

Notes

Use ripe peaches that yield slightly when pressed for best sweetness. Pour sparkling wine slowly down the side of the glass to preserve bubbles. Chill both fruit puree and sparkling wine well before serving. For a non-alcoholic version, substitute sparkling wine with sparkling water or non-alcoholic sparkling cider. If puree is too thick, stir in a splash of sparkling water to loosen it without losing flavor. Prepare fruit puree up to 2 days ahead and keep refrigerated.
