Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Prepare an ice-water bath. Score a shallow X in the bottom of each peach with a knife, then place in boiling water 1 minute. With a slotted spoon, transfer peaches to ice-water bath; let cool 1 minute. Peel peaches and remove pits.
- Puree peaches and lemon juice in a blender until smooth. Divide among six champagne flutes (about 2 tablespoons each). Top with sparkling wine, stir once, and serve.
CLASSIC BELLINI COCKTAIL
The Bellini was created in the late 1930s to early 1940s by Guiseppe Cipriani at the legendary Harry's Bar in Venice, a favorite hangout for expats including Ernest Hemingway, Sinclair Lewis, and Orson Welles. The fruity cocktail owes its name and color to Cipriani's fascination with Giovanni Bellini, a 15th-century Venetian artist. Originally prepared with Prosecco and white peach puree, it's perfectly acceptable to use yellow peach puree or prepared peach nectar and/or peach schnapps. Sip and feel sophisticated!

Steps:
- Stir the sugar and water in a large saucepan over medium heat until the sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Cool completely.
- Puree the peaches and orange peel in a blender with 1 1/2 cups of the sugar syrup until smooth. Strain through a fine-meshed strainer and into a bowl. Transfer the puree into a pitcher or clear glass bowl.
- For each serving, pour 2 to 4 tablespoons of the peach puree into a Champagne flute. Slowly pour enough Prosecco into the flute to fill. Gently stir to blend. Garnish each with an orange peel twist, and serve.
