Bellini MeanieCocktail recipe
Rating
The Bellini Meanie cocktail is a refreshing and fruity drink that has gained popularity in recent years. It was originally created in Venice, Italy in the 1940s by a bartender named Giuseppe Cipriani.
The inspiration behind the name comes from the famous Italian painter Giovanni Bellini, who was known for using light and color in his art, reflecting the vibrant hue of the cocktail. The drink has a light and sparkling flavor profile, provided by the combination of vodka, peach schnapps, and champagne.
The sweetness of the peach schnapps balances perfectly with the dryness of the champagne, while the vodka adds a subtle kick. This cocktail is perfect for a summer day or a special occasion, adding a touch of elegance and sophistication to any gathering.
