Key Ingredients & Substitutions
Peaches: Fresh, ripe peaches are essential for that sweet and juicy flavor. If peaches aren’t in season, you can use canned peaches in juice, or even frozen peaches, just thaw them and blend. I love using ripe peaches for the best taste!
Honey or Agave Syrup: This is optional to sweeten your mocktail. If you want a different flavor, you can use maple syrup or even a sugar substitute like stevia. I often skip the sweetener if my peaches are sweet enough!
Sparkling Water or Club Soda: Both will give you that bubbly effect. If you want a twist, you could use flavored sparkling water, like peach or lemon, for an extra punch!
Lemon Juice: This adds a nice tartness and balances the sweetness. If you’re out of lemons, you can use lime juice as an alternative. I often add a little zest for extra flavor!
How Do I Get the Best Consistency for My Peach Puree?
The key to a smooth peach puree is to blend your ingredients well. Here’s how to achieve the perfect texture:
- Cut peaches into small chunks before blending; this helps them blend more easily.
- Blend on high until there are no lumps left, you want it smooth and creamy.
- If it’s too thick, add a splash of water or more lemon juice while blending.
Take your time with blending – a well-blended puree really makes the mocktail shine! Enjoy your creation and the bright flavors it brings!

FAQ for Easy Peach Bellini Mocktail
Can I Use Frozen Peaches Instead of Fresh?
Yes! Frozen peaches work well in this recipe. Just make sure to thaw them completely and drain any excess liquid before blending to achieve the right consistency for your puree.
How Can I Adjust the Sweetness?
If you find the mocktail isn’t sweet enough for your taste, simply add more honey or agave syrup to the puree. Blend again to mix well. You can always start with less sweetener and adjust until it’s just right for you!
Can I Make This Mocktail Ahead of Time?
Absolutely! You can prepare the peach puree and store it in the fridge for up to 2 days. When you’re ready to serve, just mix with the sparkling water and garnish. Freshly made sparkling drinks have the best fizz, so mix just before serving!
What’s the Best Way to Store Leftover Mocktail?
If you have any leftovers, store the uneaten portion in an airtight container in the fridge. However, keep in mind that the sparkling water will lose its fizz when stored, so it’s best to consume within a day for the best taste and carbonation!
