Sparkling wines and champagne are definitely the drinks of choice on New Year's Eve, but if you are dressed to kill there is no reason your cocktail shouldn't be, too. Adding strawberry puree to a classic Bellini in place of peach gives this drink a deliciously sweet taste and a beautiful color. For those who would prefer not to have any alcohol, you can use 7-up, sparkling cider or club soda instead.

Strawberry Bellini
1 1/2 ounces strawberry puree
5 ounces champagne

Pour strawberry puree into the bottom of a champagne flute. Top with champagne.

I thought Bellini was that guy on Kids in the Hall. You know, the one who wears a bath-towel and eats only fish.
