  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a standard 12-cup cupcake pan with colorful cupcake liners.
  2. Whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl and set aside.
  3. Beat the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar on medium-high speed for about 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition.
  5. In a separate bowl, combine champagne, milk, vanilla extract, and peach puree until well blended.
  6. With an electric mixer on low speed, alternately add the dry ingredients and wet mixture to the creamed butter, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients.
  7. Fill each cupcake liner about two-thirds full and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  8. Allow the cupcakes to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
