A quick and easy frozen peach bellini slushie that combines icy peaches with bubbly sparkling wine for a refreshing summer drink ready in under 5 minutes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (300g) frozen peach slices
  • 1 cup (8 fl oz / 240ml) chilled sparkling wine or prosecco
  • 2 tablespoons (1 fl oz / 30ml) peach schnapps or peach nectar (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon (0.5 fl oz / 15ml) freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons (0.17 to 0.33 fl oz / 5-10ml) simple syrup or honey (use agave for vegan option)
  • A handful of ice cubes (optional, for extra slushy texture)
  • Mint leaves or peach slices for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the peaches: Measure 2 cups (300g) of frozen peach slices. If using fresh peaches, peel and slice, then freeze for at least 2 hours beforehand for best texture.
  2. Add ingredients to blender: Place frozen peaches, 1 cup (240ml) chilled sparkling wine, 2 tablespoons (30ml) peach schnapps or nectar (optional), 1 tablespoon (15ml) fresh lemon juice, and 1-2 teaspoons (5-10ml) simple syrup or honey into the blender. Add a handful of ice cubes if you prefer your slushie extra frosty.
  3. Blend until smooth: Pulse the blender on medium speed for 15-30 seconds, then increase to high. Blend for about 45 seconds to 1 minute until the mixture is creamy and slushy. Watch the consistency; it should be thick but pourable. If too thick, add a splash more sparkling wine or a few drops of water. Avoid over-blending to keep the bubbles.
  4. Taste and adjust: Give it a quick taste. Add more sweetener or lemon juice if needed to balance the flavor. Blend briefly again if you add anything.
  5. Serve immediately: Pour into chilled glasses. Garnish with a peach slice or mint leaf. Enjoy right away for best fizz and texture.

Notes

Use a dry sparkling wine like brut or extra dry prosecco for best flavor balance. Keep peaches well-frozen to maintain icy texture without watering down the drink. Blend in short bursts to preserve fizz. For a non-alcoholic version, substitute sparkling wine and schnapps with sparkling water or ginger ale and peach juice. Prepare peach puree base ahead and add sparkling wine just before serving to keep bubbles fresh.
