Actress Tamera Mowry-Housley is marking her 20th year in the business, and like a fine wine (wink), she’s only getting better with time. Along with co-hosting the talk show The Real, Mowry-Housley—who married Fox News correspondent Adam Housley in 2011—helms lifestyle destination TameraMowry.com and moonlights as the official wine pourer at Housley’s Century Oak Winery. But we learned that wine isn’t the only adult beverage she favors.
Favorite Cocktail
“A mojito or a margarita. I can’t have a slushy margarita. Gotta have the margarita with the salt on the rim.”
The Best Beer
“I’m weird with beer. I have to be eating a certain food—either Thai or pizza. With Thai, I must have Singha, a Thai beer. It’s great with spicy food.”
You Eat Pizza With Singha Too? Or Something Else?
“Honestly, I’m so weird. I don’t even know if girls love Guinness. But I love Guinness.”
Go-To Wine
“Pinot Noir. It’s light, it’s fresh. If I’m meeting my husband and I’m gonna show up five minutes late, he’ll have it [waiting] for me. He already knows.”
Most Recent Outing with Friends
“My best friend Andrea and I went to Mondavi—it’s a winery and they had a concert there. We had so much fun. And it was my brother Tavior’s 21st birthday. That made it even more fun.”
Favorite Bar Snack
“Sea salt almonds dipped in truffle oil. I’m craving them right now.”
The Last Good Toast You Heard
“My husband Adam always starts his toasts with ‘I’m just so grateful to have a beautiful wife’ or ‘To my beautiful wife.’ That’s always good. [Laughs]”
Your Own Wine
“I think I would be a Chardonnay because it’s sweet but it’s also dry at the same time. And that’s kind of my personality. I can be sweet until you piss me off .”
Music Artist You Want To Have Drinks With
“Sade. I’m a romantic at heart and her lyrics move me like no other songwriter. Her lyrics speak to the soul.”
Fashion Designer You Want To Have Drinks With
“Rachel Roy. I just think she’s pretty awesome. She has a very laid back, classic style. She’s my girl crush!”
