- Use a knife to score a shallow X in the bottom of each peach. Put the peaches in the boililng water for 1 minute.
- Use a slotted spoon to transfer the peaches to the ice-water bath to cool down for a couple of minutes.
- Peel the peaches, remove the pits and puree in a blender until smooth.
- Add 2 tablespoons of puree to each flute or glass, top with Prosecco and stir.
