This refreshing cocktail not only tastes amazing but will wow your guests with its festive presentation. Spritzers\u00a0can be made with really any fruit your heart desires, but we wanted to take advantage of the summer&#8217;s delicious berry harvest with this patriotically-themed cocktail. We also added a tiny splash of\u00a0Limoncello for a tart, citrusy kick, but you can add in any liqueur that suits your preference!

Using a star-shaped cookie cutter, carefully press the apple slices into star shapes.<\/p>\n<p>-Add crushed ice to the bottom of a glass and layer your raspberries, blueberries, and star-shaped apple slices on top.<\/p>\n<p>-Pour equal parts white wine and sparkling wine or Champagne over the ice, then top with\u00a0a splash of Limoncello (or your favorite liqueur).<\/p>\n<p>-Give it a gentle stir, and garnish with a few more fruits if you&#8217;d like!<\/p>\n<p>Note: You can easily make a big pitcher of this ahead of time and have your guests serve themselves! Just mix equal parts white wine and sparkling wine, a healthy splash of Limoncello, and prepared fruits together in a pitcher or punch bowl. Yum!<\/p>\n<p>If you prefer an alcohol-free version, just swap in flavored seltzer water or your favorite clear soda for a delicious mocktail!<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-215401\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/8771.jpg\" alt=\"Star-Spangled Spritzer - close-up\" width=\"750\" height=\"938\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/8771.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/8771-120x150.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/8771-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/8771-378x473.jpg 378w, https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/8771-600x750.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-215402\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/8745.jpg\" alt=\"Star-Spangled Spritzer - final\" width=\"750\" height=\"938\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/8745.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/8745-120x150.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/8745-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/8745-378x473.jpg 378w, https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/8745-600x750.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/>\n<p><strong>How will you be celebrating this summer?
