Bellini Ciprian Cocktail 750ml

In creating what was to become known as the Bellini cocktail in 1948, Giuseppe Cipriani was once again inspired by a painter, the fifteenth century Venetian painter Giovanni Bellini. Peaches were in abundance throughout Italy from June through September, and he had a predilection for the white ones. So much so, in fact, that he kept wondering whether there was a way to transform this magic fragrance into a drink he could offer at Harry’s Bar.
In St. Mark's Square, in the heart of magnificent Venice, Bellini was born - a combination of playful prosecco and white peach puree. This is the beauty of this cocktail - the original and understandable recipe, which has remained unchanged since its creation.
But why Bellini?
Because the delicious rose-orange color of the cocktail reminded Giuseppe of a painting by the 15th-century Venetian painter Giovanni Bellini.
