For the very first time this year I volunteered at a charity lunch on Christmas Day. It was unexpectedly a fun and heartwarming experience. I tend to get a bit narky over the commercialisation of Christmas. The meaning and religious significance gets lost between Santa and trees and lights and tinsel. Sometimes you need to see a bit more clearly.
Although perhaps my tradition of stirring up Christmas cocktails blurs this a little.
The perfect (and easiest) cocktail - The Bellini.
1 Poached peach - pushed through a sieve to get a smooth puree
Sparkling wine - I used Jacob's Creek Chardonnay Pinot Noir

I love a good Bellini, but I usually only drink them in Italy. I prefer to drink whatever is local when I'm at a place, and nobody does a Bellini like the Italians, just as nobody does a caiparinha like the Brazilians, a mojito like the Cubans... etc... a good excuse to travel!
