Light, bubbly, and impossibly elegant—the Bellini cocktail made brunch famous. Born in 1940s Venice at Harry's Bar, it's a simple blend of white peach purée and sparkling wine. But in Los Angeles, it becomes something more: a photogenic, effervescent toast to sunshine, style, and weekend luxury in a drink.
Whether you're brunching in Beverly Hills or clinking glasses by the coast in Malibu, the Bellini cocktail is pure golden-hour energy.
Ingredients for The Bellini Cocktail (One Serving)
- 2 oz White Peach Purée (fresh or high-quality bottled)
- 4 oz Prosecco or Sparkling Wine
- Optional: Splash of peach schnapps for extra kick
- Glass: Flute or coupe
- Garnish: Peach slice or edible flower (optional)
LA Local Tip: Find fresh white peaches at Hollywood Farmers' Market (in season), or go luxe with purée from Bristol Farms or Eataly. Want a SoCal upgrade? Party Shakers also offers Bellinis made with nectarine, guava, or mango purées sourced locally.
How to Make The Bellini Cocktail with LA Flair
1. Chill everything.
Both your glass and ingredients should be ice-cold. This drink is all about light, crisp perfection.
- Pour the peach purée into the flute.
Use 2 oz of purée—or more if you like a fruitier body. - Gently top with Prosecco.
Pour slowly to avoid overflowing foam. Do notstir—let the bubbles do the work. - Garnish lightly.
Add a thin peach slice, edible flower, or leave it clean for minimalist glam.
Why LA Can't Get Enough of the Bellini Cocktail
It's low-proof, high-impact, and completely vibe-friendly. Perfect for:
- Rooftop brunches in West Hollywood
- Bridal showers in Pasadena
- Poolside events in Pacific Palisades
- Spa retreats and wellness weekends in Topanga
It pairs beautifully with avocado toast, smoked salmon, or fruit platters—and looks stunning on every table.
FAQs
Can I use yellow peaches?
You can, but white peaches are traditional for their floral sweetness. Party Shakers offers seasonal variants for the LA fruit scene.
Is it sweet?
It's naturally sweet from the fruit, but well-balanced by the dry Prosecco. Add a splash of lemon if you want to brighten it up.
Can it be batched?
Absolutely. We pre-bottle Bellinis in mini splits or pour from stylish carafes. Great for large events and toasts.
