You may have enjoyed Blake Lively’s performances in series and movies including "Gossip Girl," "The Rhythm Section," "The Shallows" and "A Simple Favor," to name just a few. But did you know that the actress also has a passion for flavor? Lively recently announced the launch of Betty Booze — a line of alcoholic cocktails.
Bubbly and refreshing, Betty Booze drinks are made of real ingredients and top-quality tequila and bourbon. The idea behind them is to adhere to high standards to create refreshing, clean cocktails that emulate what you'd find in clean whole foods. These boozy concoctions complement Lively’s line of sparkling Betty Buzz non-alcoholic beverages that hit the market in September 2021.
There's a heartwarming back story to the names of the Betty Booze and Betty Buzz line of products. Lively chose the name Betty in honor of her grandmother and aunt. The inspiration to name the drinks after the two important Bettys in her life came from her father.
From food to cosmetics, consumers are insisting on products made with clean ingredients now more than ever. This is a major benefit of Betty Booze drinks, as they are made with juice from real fruit. Sparkling water gives them a unique twist. You can choose from bourbon- or tequila-based drinks in three flavor combinations.
When it comes to alcohol content, the cocktails contain 4.5% alcohol, making these adult drinks appealing without being too heavy.
Just as important as the ingredients in these refreshing beverages is what they don't contain. Lively's new line is made without artificial colors, flavors, sweeteners or additives, so you can feel good about indulging in them.
Betty Booze drinks come in 12-ounce cans in packs of four. This is the perfect quantity for sharing and sampling the three available flavor blends. They cost around $14.99 per pack from trusted retailers.
Whether you don't consume alcohol or love mixers, Lively's Betty Buzz line is a great option. These fizzy drinks also come in several tasty flavors. While they, too, are crafted of quality ingredients, they're alcohol-free. Also made with sparkling water, these beverages are light and refreshing. They can be enjoyed right out of the can or bottle or mixed with your favorite spirits.
