Gugino Bellini
Makes 4 servings


Ingredients:

4 or 5 peach halves (depending on size)
1 bottle extra-dry champagne
1 cup peach syrup
Grenadine (optional)


Instructions:
1. Combine, peach halves and syrup in a blender until thoroughly mixed. You'll have about 1 cup.

2. Pour 1/4 of the peach mixture into each of 4 champagne glasses. Fill each with 4 to 6 ounces of champagne, pouring down the side of the glass. Mix briefly to break up the too many bubbles formed. Add a drop or two of grenadine if desired.

Cooking Tip
A bone-dry champagne gets lost in this drink, which is why I don't recommend most brut types of champagne. Also, it's important that the champagne (any sparkling wine, really) have enough acidity to cut through the sweetness of the peach puree.
