Ingredients
  

  • 1 oz peach puree
  • 3 oz Prosecco
  • 1/2 oz bitter liqueur Aperol or Campari
  • Peach slice for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Chill a flute glass.
  • Pour the peach puree into the bottom of the chilled glass.
  • Add the bitter liqueur over the peach puree.
  • Gently pour the Prosecco over the back of a spoon to create a layering effect.
  • If desired, garnish with a slice of peach on the rim of the glass.

Notes

For a less sweet version, use less peach puree or a drier Prosecco. If using Campari, expect a more pronounced bitterness compared to Aperol, which is milder and slightly sweeter.
