Frozen Yogurt Peach Bellini Mocktail

A refreshing and elegant blend of fruity peach with frozen yogurt and bubbles, making it a delightful sip for any special (or regular) day.

Why We Love This Recipe

This mocktail is bursting with fresh fruit flavor from frozen peaches and peach juice, with the sparkling cider adding the perfect bubbly kick. And that scoop of Hiland peach frozen yogurt? It’s the star of the show—creamy, dreamy, and packed with peach flavor. This mocktail is the best of both worlds—part drink, part dessert!

Ingredient Notes

Lemon Zest: Large pieces of lemon zest add bright, citrusy notes that balance the richness of the dish.

Frozen Peaches: These keep the drink cold and give it that slushy texture. If you only have fresh peaches, slice and freeze them ahead of time for the best consistency.

Peach Juice: This enhances the peach flavor without being overpowering. If you can’t find peach juice, white grape juice or apple juice works well, too.

Sparkling Apple Cider: Adds the perfect amount of fizz and sweetness. For an alcoholic version, feel free to swap it out for prosecco!

Hiland Peach Frozen Yogurt: This is what makes this drink extra special. Enjoy it with a spoon or let it melt into the mocktail, creating a slightly creamy finish.

Step by Step Instructions

1. Blend the base. Combine the frozen peaches and peach juice in a blender and blend until smooth. If the mixture feels too thick, add a splash more juice to make it pourable.
2. Layer the glasses. Divide the peach puree evenly among four glasses. This creates a vibrant, fruity base that not only looks pretty but also ensures each sip is packed with peach flavor.
3. Add the bubbles. Slowly pour the sparkling apple cider over the peach puree. Pouring it gently helps create a beautiful layered effect, with the fizz rising through the puree to give the drink its signature sparkle.
4. Top it off. Add a scoop of peach frozen yogurt to each glass. This isn’t just for looks—it adds a creamy, luxurious texture and an extra punch of peach flavor that makes the drink feel indulgent.
5. Serve and sip. Grab a straw or a spoon (or both!) and enjoy immediately. The drink is best served right away while it’s cold, fizzy, and the frozen yogurt is still perfectly creamy.

Expert Tips and Tricks

• Use cold ingredients: Everything tastes better when it’s extra chilled! Pop the cider in the fridge overnight and freeze your glasses for an extra frosty touch.
• Make it a Slushie: Blend the sparkling cider with the peach mixture for a fully blended, slushie-like drink. Just be careful when blending carbonated drinks—pulse gently to avoid any fizzy explosions!
• Experiment with flavors: Try swapping out the peach juice for mango or pineapple juice for a fun twist. You can also mix in a handful of frozen berries for a more colorful version.

Make Ahead and Storage Instructions

This mocktail is best served fresh, but you can prep the peach puree ahead of time. Store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours. When you’re ready to serve, give it a quick stir, layer it in the glasses, and add the sparkling cider and frozen yogurt.

Serving Ideas

Now let’s talk about the garnishes! These are all completely optional but can add extra flavor and color to your peach mocktail.

• Garnish with fresh peach slices for even more flavor.
• Top with a sprig of mint for a fresh finish.
• Add a raspberry, strawberry or maraschino cherry on top for a pop of color.
