Who knew you could drink whiskey out of a teacup?
Reese Witherspoon is officially embarking on a national book tour.
The fall eight-city tour will promote the Big Little Lies star debut book, Whiskey in a Teacup: What Growing Up in the South Taught Me About Life, Love, and Baking Biscuits. The book delves into the Southern bell’s lifestyle and includes tips on just about anything from cooking to style and fashion.
The 42-year-old star took to social media to announce the exciting news, sharing a four-picture collage of herself holding up a teacup, with a caption that reads, “Hey y’all! I’m so excited to share that I’m bringing #WhiskeyInATeacup to your city! I’m gonna spill the tea on Southern living: food, beauty, decor, you name it — and I’ll bring a special guest to each stop! So tag your besties and come chat with me!”
The tour kicks off in September in New York and includes stops Washington DC, Charleston, Charlotte, Birmingham, Louisville, Nashville, and Waco.
“My grandmother Dorothea always said that it was a combination of beauty and strength that made Southern women ‘whiskey in a teacup,’” Witherspoon said in a statement. “We may be delicate and ornamental on the outside, but we’re strong and fiery on the inside. I’m so excited to travel around the country and meet more strong women and share our stories.”
According to Entertainment Weekly the book’s publisher, Touchstone, has said that Witherspoon will share personal stories on the tour, revealing how she entertains, decorates her home, and makes holidays special for her family.
