Variations

I love the simple peach and strawberry combination in this Frozen Peach Bellini, but feel free to experiment:

Different Fruit: Use frozen mangoes, raspberries, or pineapple instead of or along with the peaches and strawberries.
Sparkling Version: Substitute Prosecco or another sparkling wine for the still white wine for extra bubbles (blend other ingredients first, then briefly pulse in sparkling wine).
Make it Non-Alcoholic: Replace the white wine with white grape juice or peach nectar, and omit the peach schnapps (maybe add a splash of peach syrup or extra fruit puree).
Add Citrus: Blend in the juice of half a lime or lemon for extra tang.
Creamy Twist: Add a splash of coconut cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream before blending for a dessert-like treat.

How to Make a Frozen Peach Bellini

Making this refreshing Frozen Peach Bellini takes just a minute in the blender:

Combine and Blend

I add all the ingredients – the frozen peaches, frozen strawberries, white wine, peach schnapps, and a handful of ice – directly into my blender.
I blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and has reached a thick, slushy consistency. If it’s too thick, I might add a tiny splash more wine or water. If it’s too thin, I add a few more ice cubes or frozen fruit pieces.
I check the consistency, adding more or less ice until my desired frosty texture is reached.

Serve

Pour into glasses
Garnish and serve immediately!

Tips and Tricks for the BEST Frozen Bellini

Here are my secrets for making the perfect Frozen Peach Bellini:

Use Frozen Fruit: Starting with frozen peaches and strawberries creates the best thick, icy texture without needing excessive amounts of ice, which can dilute the flavor.
Chill Your Wine: Ensure the white wine is well-chilled before blending.
Good Quality Blender: A reasonably powerful blender will handle the frozen fruit and ice best, resulting in a smoother cocktail.
Adjust Sweetness: Taste before serving. If your fruit isn’t very sweet or you prefer a sweeter drink, blend in a teaspoon of honey or simple syrup.
Serve Immediately: Frozen blended drinks are best enjoyed right away before they start to melt and separate.

How to Serve

This Frozen Peach Bellini is the perfect drink for warm weather! Serve it:

Immediately: Pour straight from the blender into chilled wine glasses, champagne flutes, or fun cocktail glasses.
For Brunch: An ideal celebratory drink for weekend brunches.
At Summer Parties: A refreshing and crowd-pleasing cocktail for BBQs, pool parties, or patio gatherings.
As a Dessert Cocktail: A sweet and fruity way to end a meal.

Garnish with a fresh peach slice on the rim of the glass.

Make Ahead and Storage

Frozen blended cocktails like this Frozen Peach Bellini are best made fresh and served immediately for the optimal texture and fizziness (from potential sparkling wine variations). They do not store well, as they will melt and separate.

FAQs about Frozen Peach Bellini

Can I use fresh fruit instead of frozen?
- Yes, but you will need to add significantly more ice to achieve the frozen, slushy consistency, which may dilute the fruit and wine flavors. Using at least some frozen fruit is recommended.
What kind of white wine is best?
- A crisp, dry white wine works well and balances the sweetness of the fruit and schnapps. Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc, or an unoaked Chardonnay are good choices. Avoid very sweet white wines unless you adjust the added sugar/schnapps.
Is a Bellini traditionally frozen?
- No, a classic Bellini is made with peach puree and Prosecco, served chilled but not blended frozen. This recipe is a fun, frozen twist on the original!

Enjoy this incredibly refreshing, fruity, and easy-to-make Frozen Peach Bellini! It’s like sunshine in a glass.

Ingredients

Scale

2 cups frozen sliced peaches
1 cup frozen strawberries

Handful of ice cubes (adjust amount for consistency)
Fresh peach or strawberry slice, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Notes

Frozen Fruit: Using frozen peaches and strawberries is key to achieving the thick, frozen texture without overly diluting the drink with ice.

Sweetness: This Bellini gets sweetness from the fruit, wine, and schnapps. If you prefer a sweeter drink, you can add 1-2 teaspoons of simple syrup or agave nectar before blending.
