Jennifer Lopez invited fans inside the kitchen of the $60M mansion she shares with Ben Affleck in Bel Air, Los Angeles, on Friday.
The Bronx-born beauty was busy at one of the islands inside her sprawling chef’s lair where she was preparing Delola cocktails with flowers inside the ice cubes in a video shared to Instagram.
The 54-year-old This Is Me… Now star had on a plunging floral print spring dress with cut outs at the sides from PatBO. It’s called the ‘Viera Cut-Out Maxi dress.’
Her long caramel colored highlighted hair was worn down over her shoulders as she wore pastel colored makeup and flashed a pale green matte manicure.
The song she played was Hummingbird from her latest album.
‘Dressing up my cocktails with edible flower ice cubes, the perfect drink for spring!’ said the Hustlers actress in her Instagram caption.

The Bronx-born beauty was busy at one of the islands inside her sprawling chef’s lair where she was preparing Delola cocktails with flowers inside the ice cubes
She said in her video that it is ‘officially spring so I am finding a way to add flowers to everything.’
The mother to twins Max and Emma, 15, places the edible flowers in an ice cube tray then poured water on top, advising to freeze overnight.
The star did so by adding edible flowers to her Delola cocktails, she added. ‘It is almost too pretty to drink,’ she noted before wishing fans a ‘happy spring.’
She founded Delola Spritz exactly one year ago on April 5, 2023.
The drinks are low calorie beverages.
‘The secret is out!!! I’m proud to share with you @DELOLA … my new collection of unique, mixology-level ready to enjoy spritzes. More is #OnTheJLo. Let’s live the #DelolaLife together 
@gregswalesart,’ the star said a year ago.
The pinup had on a knotted shirt and yellow-and-white buttoned skirt with gold hoop earrings.
The producer was on the coast of Italy at an outdoor bar with pals. Lopez is also seen in a light yellow shirt with long silver earrings that have bows on them as she raves about her new brand.

Lola is a longtime nickname of Jennifer’s that reflects her ‘more playful, carefree side,’ a press release revealed.
It is a company she founded ‘to launch unique, mixology-level ready-to-enjoy cocktails designed for elegant, effortless entertaining as part of a thoughtful lifestyle.’
Lopez stated, ‘I love entertaining and to relax and unwind with friends, but never found a drink that was right for me.
‘I was in search of something that I could enjoy that fit the thoughtful way that I live my life. When I didn’t find it, I decided to create Delola.
Lopez added that her goals were ‘better ingredients, better taste, fewer calories than traditional cocktails,’ in just one simple pour.

‘It is almost too pretty to drink,’ she noted before wishing fans a ‘happy spring.’ She founded Delola Spritz exactly one year ago on April 5, 2023
‘Something easy, fun, fresh and delicious. I knew that if I was looking, others were too,’ said the 2020 Super Bowl halftime performer.
‘Delola gives people the freedom to enjoy – free from the cutting, squeezing, and mixing, free from the stress of entertaining, free to make ordinary moments extraordinary,’ added the Los Angeles resident.
‘Each one is bottled up in a beautiful glass bottle and ready to serve,’ said the Marry Me actress.
‘Just pour over ice and enjoy,’ she suggested.
Then Lopez let fans know that she has had the spritz on her mind for years: ‘I started this journey two years ago and I’m so excited to finally share Delola with the world,’ gushed the former Fly Girl.
Jennifer began developing Delola in 2020 in collaboration with drinks industry veterans, Ken Austin and Jenna Fagnan and her manager and business partner Benny Medina.
It was added that Delola offers ‘premium spirit-based, full-flavored, crafted cocktails that are made with natural botanicals, are gluten free and lower calorie than traditional cocktails.’
The beverage is sold in glass bottles. The Delola bottle is embossed with the ‘Delola Crest’ which was inspired by the Bronx crest, Jennifer’s hometown, and with lions and ivy vines around the labels that Jennifer art directed.

Her caption in 2023 read, ‘The secret is out!!! I’m proud to share with you @DELOLA … my new collection of unique, mixology-level ready to enjoy spritzes.’ She added, ‘More is #OnTheJLo. Let’s live the #DelolaLife together’
Jennifer brought in mixologist Lynnette Marrero to collaborate on these cocktails.
The first release, DELOLA SPRITZ is available in three original cocktails: BELLA BERRY SPRITZ made with berry, hibiscus and premium vodka; a full-bodied cocktail with notes of red berries, hibiscus and citrus.
Then there is PALOMA ROSA SPRITZ which is made with grapefruit, elderflower and premium tequila; an elevated Paloma with notes of ripe, luscious grapefruit, rich elderflower and a dash of salt, the press release shared.
And L’ORANGE SPRITZ was made with orange, passionfruit and premium amaro; an ode to the Italian spritzes with notes of bright, delicious fruit perfectly balanced with the bitterness of amaro.
Delola will be sold in fine grocery and spirits establishments, restaurants, and bars beginning in April with a continued roll out throughout spring.
