She lent her skills as a certified sommelier on Saturday to rustle up some festive beverages she promises will light up your holiday parties.

The eldest daughter of country icon Alan was a natural on-screen alongside Fox hosts Pete Hegseth and Rachel Campos-Duffy.

The presenters let Mattie take the lead in the fun festive segment on Fox & Friends Weekend, allowing her to plug her father’s new whiskey line as well as sharing her favorite drinks to enjoy over Christmas.

But the trio’s rapport remained fluid, with viewers left wowed by the 32-year-old’s confidence and knowledge of the alcohol industry.

Mattie beamed: “This is my favorite segment to ever be a part of! So I’m glad we got to be here with you guys.”

She went on to explain her dad Alan gave her a big role in helping create his bourbon beverage, Silverbelly Whiskey, due to her expertise as a sommelier.

The ‘NaSHEville’ podcast host then shared some of her family’s delicious cocktail recipes with viewers.

Mattie showed how she spiced up her father’s homemade eggnog by adding some Silverbelly Whiskey and a cinnamon stick.

She then rustled up a ‘Santa Clausamapolitan’ – which she described as her parent’s “love child”.

Pete and Rachel were noticeably fascinated by Mattie’s cocktail-making skills and joked they would down her drinks during the commercial break.

Sharing a pic of her smiling with her co-hosts, Mattie wrote: “@foxandfriends, holler if you’ve ever got a guest anchor spot,” alongside a wink emoji.

She then shared another snap of the trio taken during their Christmas special from inside the studio.

Mattie broke her silence on Thursday following concerns from fans regarding her father’s health amid his battle with the neurological condition Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.

Last September, Alan opened up on his CMT disease diagnosis that he received over a decade ago.

The condition, which he described as a “neuropathy and neurological disease”, affects his balance and ability to walk.

He told TODAY at the time: “It’s genetic that I inherited from my daddy … There’s no cure for it, but it’s been affecting me for years.

“And it’s getting more and more obvious. And I know I’m stumbling around on stage.

“And now I’m having a little trouble balancing, even in front of the microphone, and so I just feel very uncomfortable.”

Bizarre rumors had begun swarming the internet this week, claiming that the country music star had died.

The baseless speculation was debunked after a clip of Alan was shared online alongside the caption: “Still living that honky tonk dream y’all”.

But it still spooked his fans, seeing them flood his social media pages with well wishes and prayers.
