As everyone knows, Jeannie Mai-Jenkins is all about feeling good (and looking good) inside and out. When the holidays hit, it’s easy to fall into the never-ending party season, with a bunch of small talk and hangovers from one too many holiday drinks. However, new mama Mai-Jenkins is on a mission: to end those hangovers and still have some tasty cocktails.

In a recent interview with US Magazine, the former Real the host revealed her go-to drink of the season, saying, “My drink of choice used to be an old-fashioned until I realized I had to get up the next day and actually function. So I’m thankful for this spritzed version!” She discussed how she accomplishes this: by heavily relying on Owl’s Brew Spiced Chai & Cranberry Boozy Tea, which has notes of ginger, cinnamon, and cloves.
