Cheers!

It's Friday! What a week. I don't know about you, but I am ready to kick back with one of my favorites. 

Rhubarb Bellini

ingredients

• 2 cups rhubarb, chopped (about 2 large stalks)
• 1/2 cup cane sugar
• 1/4 cup water
• Thinly peeled zest and juice from 1 lemon
• Chilled Prosecco

method

Combine all ingredients (except Prosecco, duh) in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer. Lower the heat to a slow bubble and cook until the rhubarb softens to a mushy texture, about 15 minutes.

Puree the rhubarb with an immersion blender or by hand with a potato masher until smooth. Refrigerate until cold. Or if you're very, er, thirsty, chill the puree in a bowl of ice water until cold.

Pop open a bottle of cold Prosecco or other sparkling wine. Spoon 1 - 2 tablespoons of the puree into flutes. Pour some Prosecco over, stir to blend and top off with more Prosecco, pouring gradually.

Bottoms up!
