Of course we’ve seen Taylor drinking beer with her boyfriend Travis Kelce, but when she’s with the girls, it’s apparently a French blonde she’s asking out.
So if you’re still celebrating the launch of Department of Tortured Poets or getting ready to see your icon in concert, this is the only cocktail party to watch.
A classic French Blonde is a delicious blend of gin, elderflower liqueur and grapefruit juice – aka the perfect flavors for spring/summer.
But if that’s not your thing, maybe you’re more of a Beyoncé—think woodsy whiskey drinks and strong straight out of Texas.
Or channel Blake Lively’s refreshed vibe with a simple, spicy little number using one of her own Betty Buzz drinks — and skip the gin if you’re feeling booze-free.
Girls, we’ve got you covered this Friday night, so enjoy your new favorite soundtrack and Shake It (the week) Off…
