More than a decade after "Gossip Girl" ended, Blake Lively and Zuzanna Szadkowski delighted fans with a surprise on-screen reunion, this time, over cocktails instead of Manhattan drama.

Blake Lively recently reunited with her former "Gossip Girl" costar Zuzanna Szadkowski in a new advertisement for Lively's canned cocktail brand, Betty Booze. The lighthearted commercial marks their first public appearance together in over 12 years, since the CW teen drama wrapped in 2012.

"It's good to see you!" Lively exclaimed with enthusiasm as the two met up in what appeared to be Central Park. Lively, who portrayed Serena van der Woodsen on the hit series, was greeted with a warm compliment from Szadkowski, known for playing Dorota Kishlovsky, Blair Waldorf's loyal housekeeper: "You look amazing."

Noticing a change in Szadkowski's voice, Lively quipped, "You sound different." Szadkowski replied, "Oh, allergies. I have tea... the best tea."

She wasn't referring to Upper East Side gossip, but rather a new flavor from Lively's Betty Booze line. "Betty Booze vodka iced tea with lemonade," Szadkowski said. "It's crisp, balanced, nothing artificial." Lively added with a wink, "Which is hard to find around these parts."

The two shared the citrusy cocktail from teacups, playfully nodding to their "Gossip Girl" past, while exchanging heartfelt sentiments.

The spot concluded with a nod to their former characters' mischievous history, as Szadkowski declared, "Oh, Miss Betty, you and me are definitely going to get into some trouble."

Though brief and promotional, the reunion offered a nostalgic treat for longtime fans of the show, blending humor, sentiment, and a dash of glamour, just like old times on the Upper East Side.
