Enjoy a Pineapple Bellini today. It's easy to make and perfect for any event.
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh pineapple chunks
- 1 tablespoon sugar optional, adjust based on sweetness of the pineapple
- 1 bottle Prosecco or other sparkling wine chilled
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish optional
Instructions
Prepare the Pineapple Puree:
- Place the pineapple chunks in a blender. Add sugar if you're using it. Blend until smooth. You can strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve for a smoother texture, but this step is optional.
Chill the Puree:
- Transfer the pineapple puree to the refrigerator and let it chill thoroughly.
Assemble the Bellini:
- Pour about 2 tablespoons of the chilled pineapple puree into a champagne flute.
Add Sparkling Wine:
- Slowly top the puree with Prosecco, allowing the puree to gradually mix with the wine. The ideal ratio is about one part pineapple puree to four parts Prosecco, but you can adjust to taste.
Garnish and Serve:
- Stir gently, if desired, to mix the layers slightly. Garnish with a sprig of mint or a pineapple wedge. Serve immediately and enjoy.
