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.

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."
