The Bellini was invented at Harry's Bar in Venice. A few years ago I had the 
pleasure of sampling a small, overpriced, yet delicious Bellini there. (I 
still have the bar tab as a souvenir of my visit!)

Ideally it's made of puree of white peaches and Prosecco, an Italian sparkling 
wine. In reality it is often made with peach juice and champagne, and 
sometimes it's enhanced with the addition of peach schnapps. Some of the 
regulars here have suggested that a few dashes of Fee Brothers' Peach Bitters 
make an excellent addition to the drink.
