Equipment

Ingredients

Blueberry Ginger Puree

  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup water

Bellini

  • Chilled Prosecco or any sparkling wine
  • Fresh blueberries for garnish
  • Mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • Make the Blueberry Ginger Puree:
  • In a small saucepan, combine the blueberries, grated ginger, sugar, and water.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes until the blueberries are soft and the mixture has thickened slightly.
  • Remove from heat and let it cool.
  • Once cooled, blend the mixture until smooth. Strain it through a fine mesh sieve to remove any pulp or ginger fibers, and chill the puree in the refrigerator.
  • Assemble the Bellini:
  • For each glass, pour about 2 tablespoons of the blueberry ginger puree into a champagne flute.
  • Slowly top with chilled Prosecco, allowing the puree to gently mix with the sparkling wine.
  • Stir gently if needed to combine the flavors.
  • Garnish and Serve:
  • Drop a few fresh blueberries into each glass.
  • Add a mint leaf to each glass for a touch of color and freshness.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy the vibrant, zesty flavors.
