Why This Raspberry Bellini Bliss is a Must-Make

Topped with sparkling prosecco, each sip is a burst of summer brightness. It’s a stunning addition to any celebration, impresses guests with minimal effort, and can easily be multiplied for larger gatherings.
Crafting the Raspberry Puree
The secret to a standout Bellini lies in a silky raspberry puree. Start by blending fresh or frozen raspberries with a hint of sugar and lemon juice. For the smoothest results and effortless blending, use a high-powered Ninja BL610 Professional 72 Oz Countertop Blender, Black. Strain the blend to remove seeds, yielding a vibrant and intensely flavored base.
Make extra puree and store it in a set of airtight Rubbermaid Brilliance Food Storage Containers, Set of 5 (3.2 Cup) to have ready-to-pour elegance at a moment’s notice.
Building and Serving the Bellini
Combine your raspberry puree with chilled prosecco. Pour the puree into champagne flutes, then gently top with wine, letting the bubbles stir the drink. For parties, line your serving table with a Pureegg Plastic Table Cloth Disposable 10 Pack, White for effortless cleanup, especially helpful after celebratory cheers.
Serve each glass with a fresh raspberry or lemon twist for a visually striking finish. To keep everything ice-cold and refreshing, store your prosecco in an insulated Stanley Quencher ProTour Flip Straw Tumbler, 30 oz, Rose Quartz before pouring.
