This Lush Berry Bellini has a pretty red color and lots of fizz for entertaining fun.

Christmas (and Valentine’s day) are great times to bring out the red cocktail recipes.  They are very festive and inviting during the holiday season.

Summer is also a great time for red cocktails, like my frozen strawberry daiquiri. It’s perfect for a pool side afternoon.

Make yourself a Lush Berry Bellini Cocktail

A bellini is a mixture of sparkling wine and peach purée or nectar.

This cocktail originated in Venice, Italy. I make  mine with dry rosé champagne to give it a pretty red color. and add in raspberries as a garnish.  Make your own peach purée easily with my recipe.

You can use frozen raspberries and peaches instead of fresh and it is also good.
