Rossini

A spring variation of the Bellini using fresh strawberry purée and Prosecco.

Only two ingredients, so ripe strawberries decide everything: purée them fresh, chill the purée, and pour the Prosecco slowly down the side of the glass so it doesn’t foam over. A single slow stir blends the purée without flattening the bubbles.
