A bellini can be made in so many forms. The traditional version combines peach nectar and prosecco, a deliciously sweet and tangy sparkling drink that pairs so well with breakfast or lunch (and BRUNCH!). I’ve made a pitcher of bellinis and have experimented with all kinds of fruit in this cocktail, but this mango bellini might just take the cake. This recipe calls for fresh pureed mango, triple sec and sweet sparkling rose. It’s pretty amazing.
The full recipe is below, but let me share a few tips with you first. I started with a fresh ripe mango, the fruit is soft to the touch and peels easily revealing a sweet and juicy flesh. I peeled and cut the mango then added it to my Ninja. This blender is the key to a perfectly smooth puree, I use it for smoothies too and they are never lumpy. With the mango I added a shot of triple sec and blended until it was as smooth as baby food – just a grown up version!
This puree is the base of the mango bellini. I spooned a bit of the puree into a flute and then topped it with sparkling rosé. The puree will sit on the bottom and you can enjoy the cocktail just like that, or you can gently stir the bellini to combine all the ingredients. The rosé is sweet and delicious and the triple sec adds a little citrus kick to the drink.

Having spent my youth in Hawaii, 'Mango' is my love language and when combined with Triple Sec and Sparkling Rose...sounds like the perfect brunch cocktail. BUT, there's no law I couldn't enjoy one at 5 o'clock either!
Hugs,
