May 2024 · 2 minute read

Blake Lively is opening up about how the exhaustion that comes from raising her and Ryan Reynolds’s four kids inspired her latest business venture — and in signature Blake Lively fashion, she did it in the most hilarious way possible.

On Wednesday, the actress shared a series of Instagram Stories in promotion of her newest canned alcoholic beverage line, Betty Booze. “These are recipes I’ve been making for loved ones for years,” she wrote alongside a photo of her unveiling the new drinks on a silver platter. “But I have four kids now. And I’m tired. So here they are. In a can. Enjoy. Responsibly…ish.”

Along with the initial announcement, Lively also took time to detail each of the three flavor options: Sparkling Tequila with Oak Smoked Lemonade, Sparkling Tequila with Lime Shiso, and Sparkling Bourbon with Apple Ginger Sour Cherry.

"How you know I actually made these recipes … part 1: There’s butter. In lemonade,” she wrote on a separate slide. “It’s my secret. But today, I’m a sellout. So, now it’s your secret. If you know me. You know butter is my love language.”

Of course, it wouldn’t be a quintessential Blake post without a mention of her husband, and she was sure to slide one in when talking about her lime-flavored beverage. “It’s really fucking delicious,” she added. “And if there’s one thing I don’t compromise on. It’s flavor. And husbands. OK that’s two things.”

The multi-hyphenate then ended her announcement with a shoutout to both her non-alcoholic beverage line, Betty Buzz, and moms everywhere: “@bettybuzz Good for all ages and preferences. Zero alcohol. @bettybooze for those who want the alcohol. Because that’s what hosts do. We make something for everyone. And not usually ourselves. Wait, I’m just describing moms now,” she wrote.
