Guava Passion Bellini
Summer is here. I don’t know how is it where you at, but it is hot here in FL! It’s the perfect time for something bubbly and refreshing to make summer great! That is how I came up with a Guava Passion Bellini. I love guavas: the fruit, the nectar, the candy, all of it. Wanted to create a drink that used the guava juice, but needed something to make it pop.
That is when I thought passion fruit liquor. Guava and passion fruit mix really well. Then I wanted something bubbly, becuase why not, bubbles are fun! I thought of using Prosecco, but didn’t want to add more sweetness to a mix that was already sweet, so decided to use a Prosecco Brut. It is dry, not very sweet and will counterbalance the sweetness.
You could replace the guava nectar with guava juice. I just prefer the nectar, I find it less sweet and closer in flavor to the guava. If you don’t have prosecco but have champagne, you could use it too. It is all about preferences, choices, and many times, what you have at home!
The recipe is for a 6 oz champagne glass, but it also includes the amounts if you want to prepare a pitcher. Make sure your guava nectar and the prosecco are chilled, you don’t want to add ice and dilute your bellini. Cin Cin!
