- Make your own peach puree: Making your own peach puree is easy and it will give your Bellini a more intense flavor. Simply peel and pit a few peaches, then puree them in a blender or food processor until smooth.
- Adjust the sweetness to your liking: Bellinis can be made more or less sweet, depending on your preference. If you like your Bellinis sweet, you can add a little bit of simple syrup or sugar to the peach puree. If you prefer a tart Bellini, you can use less sugar or omit it altogether.
- Garnish your Bellini with a peach slice or a maraschino cherry: This will add a festive touch to your cocktail.
