Two Hundred Seventy-Four: Hush-a-Bye Bellini

I've made a few champagne cocktails in the past week and I'm rather enjoying them.  

Maybe a bit too much.  

I had some peaches and decided to make Martha's Hush-a-Bye Bellinis.  In case you were wondering, a Bellini is a mimosa made with peaches instead of orange juice.  It was invented at the famous Harry's Bar in Venice, Italy and named after a 15th-century artist.  

I'm not sure how Martha named this "Hush-a-Bye" Bellini.  Maybe it's inspired by the addition of elderflower liqueur.  


Maybe it's because if you add a little too much elderflower liqueur, you'll hush right up.

As in zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....

Whatever the reason, these Bellini's are delicious.  Nap-time or not.
