6-ounce containers raspberries, divided
1 pt.
blueberries
Pineapple stars (instructions below)

750-milliliter bottle sparkling wine or 3/4 liter sparkling water

Pineapple Stars: Peel pineapple and slice 1/4 inch thick. Use small star-shaped cookie cutters to cut out shapes. (PS: This works with melons too!)

Make it a mocktail! Skip the wine and set out extra fruit and sparkling water so guests can mix up a nonalcoholic option.
