Bellini

Who doesn't love to end the week with a fun and unique cocktail!  Here is a simple Bellini recipe, which really just consists of a peach puree topped off with sparkling wine (or Champagne)! This drink is fancy people, enjoy in the evening or serve at brunch!

Servings: 2
Serving Size: 2 T peach purée + 4 fl oz Champagne
Points Plus: 4pp
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Chill Time: 2 hours
Level of Difficulty: Easy

Ingredients
2 rip peaches, seeded and diced
1 T fresh lemon juice,
1 T sugar
8 fl oz chilled sparkling wine, I used Prosecco

Directions
Get out your food processor, magic bullet or blender and add the peaches, lemon juice and sugar to the bowl. Process until smooth. Press the mixture through a sieve and only keep the liquid that you are able to squeeze through. Chill the peach puree for at least two hours. Place 2 T of peach puree into each Champagne glass and fill top with cold sparkling wine. Serve Immediately!

Tip
For a non-alcoholic twist, serve the peach puree with peach flavored La Croix!

Skinny Chocolate Shake

Most people eat big breakfasts on Sunday morning.  You know...eggs, bacon, toast, pancakes, french toast, doughnuts... I decided to wake up yesterday and make a skinny chocolate milkshake! This tasty drink was very filling, and the perfect start to a day of outside adventure! (seriously it was really filling)

Servings: 2
Serving Size: 1 1/2 cup
Points Plus: 2pp
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: n/a
Level of Difficulty: Easy

Ingredients
2 cups Almond vanilla milk
About 15 ice cubes
1/2 t vanilla
1-2 T unsweetened Cocoa powder
1 Banana

Directions
Put all ingredients in a blender and blend! Pour into a cup with a fancy straw.

Tip
To make a thicker shake just add more ice.  You could easily bulk up this shake with more fruit.  I think the addition of strawberries would be delish!
