She's not a normal mom — Reese Witherspoon is a cool mom! By day, she might be one of Hollywood's most in-demand actresses, but on her off time? The 44-year-old mother-of-two also happens to be one of TikTok's breakout stars.
Fans can catch @OfficialReeseTikTok whipping up her go-to green smoothie, dancing with son Deacon, or even introducing the newest member of their family: a dog. But want to know what else we caught Witherspoon doing? Saving Thanksgiving.
When it comes to the holidays, a good Thanksgiving cocktail recipe is an absolute essential. There is no way any of us can survive the season (or our family's) without finding the perfect concoction to serve up (and have on repeat). However, finding the right one? It's one disaster waiting to happen — or so it seemed until our golden girl came in to save the (holi)day.
What's the one drink that should be on everyone's holiday menus this year? It's this Fizzy Apple Cider, and it happens to be Witherspoon's fall favorite. And, if you're looking to recreate this A-list-approved drink? She's got it covered.
There are no complicated directions or requirements, and all you need are four simple ingredients, beautiful barware, and ta-da! This Reese Witherspoon cocktail recipe will be a timeless (TikTok) tradition for years to come!
