Peach Bellini

Ingredients

• 6 peaches, (about 1 pound, 8 ounces), halved and pitted
• 1/4 cup superfine sugar, plus more for garnish
• 1/4 cup water
• 1 bottle Prosecco (750 ml or 3 1/3 cups), chilled

Directions

With a box grater grate peaches into a pitcher. Add the sugar and water to the peaches and place pitcher in refrigerator until chilled and sugar has dissolved, or until needed.
