“For fun, starting when I was in eighth grade, my mom [Lynne] and I would make the two-hour drive from Kentwood to Biloxi, Mississippi, and while we were there, we would drink daiquiris,” Spears wrote. “We called our cocktails ‘toddies.’”
“I loved that I was able to drink with my mom every now and then. The way we drank was nothing like how my father did it,” she added. “When he drank, he grew more depressed and shut down. We became happier, more alive and adventurous.”
According to People magazine, the 41-year-old singer described her childhood as anything but ordinary.
