Looking for a festive cocktail to prepare at your next holiday party?

Fox News Digital spoke to an Illinois-based chef and winemaker who shared a recipe and tips for preparing a "nice and simple" spritzer with some holiday flair.

Briana DiTommaso is not only head winemaker of Provocativo, she's also a mother of three, so she understands the need for quick and easy solutions.

That's why she came up with a holiday cocktail recipe that doesn't take much time to make. (See the video at the top of this article.)

"You don't have to be a mixologist. You don't have to be a bartender. You don't have to be a professional," she told Fox News Digital. "This is really easy, and it looks really good."

DiTommaso shared a few tips to make the drink even better.

When it comes to the raspberries, "give them a good muddle," DiTommaso told Fox News Digital.

If you don't have a muddler, a simple spoon will suffice, she said.

"It all works the same way," DiTommaso said.

When keeping the spritzer chilled, more ice is better.

"I like more ice than not enough because I like to keep it cold, and I don't want the ice to melt and water down the drink," DiTommaso said.

The result is a drink that "looks really festive for the holidays."

This recipe is owned by Briana DiTommaso and was shared with Fox News Digital.
