Gossip Girl star, Blake Lively or commonly called Serena Van Der Woodson on the show has launched her personal line of non-alcoholic mixers. “Why should alcohol have all the fun” was her motto while developing the business concept. She was also inspired to create something for people like her – the ones who do not consume alcohol.
You could live like Lively herself and skip the alcohol. “I don’t drink,” she said to Elle. “I know that’s odd coming from the wife of an infamous gin slinger.” “Over the past many years of mixing but not drinking cocktails, it became clear mixers are the unsung heroes of the drink world and deserve just as much love as alcohol. We’ve spent the last three years crafting Betty Buzz and are so excited for people to finally taste it.” Blake adds.
Her Instagram page for the business is called @bettybuzz. The name ‘Betty‘ is a tribute to many women in her life – from her grandmother, aunt and one-year-old daughter, all are called Betty. And as for the ‘Buzz’ part? “The bubbles and flavors feel like a buzz of joy.” says Blake in her Press Release. The page already has 72.4 thousand followers on it!
Her business has / will probably not have any problem in flourishing=ng because of her celebrity background, celebrity husband and other celebrity friends like Hugh Jackman posting about Betty Buzz’s launch. Hugh Jackman posts an honest video of himself giving a review on the mixers.
The new product comes in five different flavours: Tonic Water, Sparkling Grapefruit, Meyer Lemon Club Soda, Sparkling Lemon Lime and Ginger Beer. The drinks are made with real juice and come without any artificial flavours, colours, sweeteners, or gluten.
Betty Buzz currently only ships within the US, but fingers crossed the bottles – which are offered in 12-packs, with each bottle big enough to make two cocktails, for $29.99 – will be available here soon.
