Actress Blake Lively is appearing in a new spot for her bubbly mixer line Betty Buzz.

In the ad, Lively pairs Betty Buzz Tonic Water and Aviation Gin to create the Betty Buzz cocktail, claiming it’s the best dual since cheese and mac. “Yes, my friends, this cocktail is a real Juliet and Romeo love story,” the narrator notes.

The spot is timed to National Gin & Tonic Day on April 9 and highlights the classic drink. Aviation Gin is her husband Ryan Reynolds’ brand. The Betty Buzz spot lives on YouTube and Instagram.

The work was created by Maximum Effort, the digital marketing agency founded by Reynolds and George Dewey.

The Betty Buzz beverage line, which launched in 2021, also includes ginger beer, lemon line, grapefruit and Meyer lemon club soda.

In February, the couple teamed for a Puppy Bowl commercial that Reynolds narrated. It sent up the traditional "rough-and-tough" beer commercials.
