Ingredients

250ml white peach purée (or yellow peach if white unavailable)

1 tbsp honey (optional, for a touch of sweetness)

6 small thyme sprigs, plus extra for garnish

1 bottle prosecco, chilled

Method for White Peach & Thyme Bellini

1. If desired, gently warm the peach purée with honey and 2 thyme sprigs over very low heat for 2–3 minutes to infuse. Cool completely and remove thyme.

2. Divide peach purée evenly among 6 chilled coupes or flutes.

3. Top slowly with prosecco, letting the bubbles mix through naturally to create a soft, cloudy appearance.

4. Garnish each glass with a small sprig of fresh thyme.

Handy Hints for your White Peach & Thyme Bellini

Using white peaches creates that signature pale, milky hue; yellow peaches give a warmer golden tone.
For a stronger herbal note, steep thyme sprigs in the purée overnight, then strain before serving.
Nectarine purée also works beautifully if peaches are out of season.
Serve immediately to preserve the cloudy texture and fine bubbles.
