CHERRY BELLINIS

Steps:

• After 5-6 days, drain the liquid into a saucepan over a fine strainer. Discard solids.
• Place the pan on the stove over medium low heat. Stir in the water and sugar until well-combined. Bring the mixture to a light boil. Lower the heat slightly and continue simmering for about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool. Store in the refrigerator.
• In two champagne flutes, divide the cherry juice and the liqueur evenly amongst each glass. Top with chilled prosecco. Stir gently. Serve.

BELLINIS

Steps:

• Stir the sugar and water in a large saucepan over medium heat until the sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Cool completely.
• Puree the peaches and orange peel in a blender with 1 1/2 cups of the sugar syrup until smooth. Strain through a fine-meshed strainer and into a bowl. Transfer the puree into a pitcher or clear glass bowl.
• For each serving, pour 2 to 4 tablespoons of the peach puree into a Champagne flute. Slowly pour enough Prosecco into the flute to fill. Gently stir to blend. Garnish each with an orange peel twist, and serve.
• Do-Ahead Tip: The peach puree can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.
