Elevate your dessert game with this luxurious *Tastebud Tickling Bellini Sorbet*, a refreshing twist on the classic Italian Bellini cocktail. This frozen delight blends the natural sweetness of ripe peaches with a touch of lemon juice for brightness, while Prosecco and optional peach schnapps add effervescent sophistication. Perfectly smooth and light, this sorbet is churned to silky perfection and garnished with fresh mint for a pop of aromatic freshness. Ready in just 20 minutes of prep, it’s the ideal make-ahead dessert for summer gatherings, elegant dinners, or whenever you’re craving something cool and bubbly. Whether served in dessert bowls or champagne flutes, this fruity, boozy treat guarantees a refreshing finish that’s both indulgent and unforgettable.
Peel, pit, and roughly chop the peaches. If the peaches are difficult to peel, blanch them in boiling water for 30 seconds and then plunge them into an ice bath to loosen the skin.
In a small saucepan, combine the sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves completely. Remove from heat and allow the syrup to cool to room temperature.
In a blender or food processor, combine the peaches, cooled sugar syrup, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth and silky. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve if you prefer a smoother sorbet.
Stir in the Prosecco and peach schnapps (if using) into the peach mixture. Mix well to combine.
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes, until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
Transfer the sorbet to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours to firm up.
Before serving, let the sorbet sit at room temperature for 5 minutes to soften slightly. Scoop into bowls or dessert glasses, and garnish with fresh mint leaves.
Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing, effervescent treat!
