This delicious peach flavoured cocktail is refreshing and perfect all year round. It was originally made in 1948 by Giuseppe Cipriani, a bartender and owner of Harry’s Bar, who was commissioned to create a drink in honour of a famous Venetian painter Giovanni Bellini. It’s quick and easy to make and can be made regular or frozen. If you’d like to experience a Bellini from the experts, check out Harry’s Bar at San Marco 1323 Calle Vallaresso, Venice, or make it yourself! Either way, we hope you enjoy it!

To make ahead, puree the peaches, strain, place in a covered container, and store in the fridge for up to 3 days, stir before using.
