Can you make bellini with peach juice?
Yes, you can use peach juice in place of the peach nectar.

Yes, you can use canned peaches but it may be too sweet. I would suggest canned peaches in water rather than syrup and unsweetened.
You will need to puree the peaches in a blender or food processor. If you don’t think it’s sweet enough you can add a little bit of sweetener depending on your taste preference.
