Fresh Peach Bellini

It's peach season! All those ripe juicy peaches are ready to be made into whatever our little hearts desire! The husband and I went out to the farms this weekend to get ourselves some freshly picked ones, but when we got home I realized I have a giant box of peaches... what am I going to do with them all!? So the planning begun, a whole week of different peach recipes, made in savory, sweet and scrumptious ways. Ergo Peach Week. I will be posting new peach recipes all week long for you, so you can get out and grab your own peachy goodness! First recipe of the week is to replace my usual Sunday Funday Mimosas. The classic recipe of a Peach Bellini, no syrups no artificial junk just you, the peaches and some champagne. 



Ingredients:
  • 2 tsps natural cane sugar
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 bottle chilled champagne
  • 2 ripe peaches, pit removed and peeled
Watched a great femme fatal, mystery, murder film today starring Robert Mitchum and Jane Russell, Jane is one of my all time favorite old time actresses and she sure did have a voice. She has a Rita in Gilda vibe to her in this film, but you know, less self-destructive. So here you are from the film Macao, here's Jane:




Directions:
  1. In a blender combine peaches, sugar and lemon juice. Blend until smooth.
  2. In a champagne flute add 2 1/2 tbsp of the mixture, pour champagne slowly over the top, stir well to combine.
  3. Serve!


Happy and Safe Drinking Everyone!
