Kate Hudson’scareer spans acting, fronting two fashion businesses (Fabletics activewearandHappy x Nature) and co-hosting abrand new podcast with older brother Oliver Hudson. And when she’s not on call for work, she’s on call at home with her three children. But the multi-hyphenate star’s busy schedule did not stop her from branching into a totally new space: the liquor industry — an area in which she feels women are underrepresented.

“This whole process has been a blast,” Hudson, who partnered with businessman David Kanbar, co-creator of Skinnygirl withBethenny Frankeland Bulldog Gin, told PEOPLE at the gathering. “I have a lot more to learn, but it’s one of the most on-brand businesses I’ve done yet. This is a celebration of this one little gem that we created, and now we get to enjoy it and hope other people enjoy it.”
She added: “With all of the things I do, liquor is usually needed — whether it’s a premiere, a Fabletics party, or a Happy x Nature clothing launch. It’s the perfect edition to my other projects. We love hosting a party and now I can provide free vodka!”

To prove she’s all-in on her latest venture, Hudson even got behind the bar at Monday’s event to show everyone how she makes her favorite cocktail: an “extra-dirty” vodka martini.
“It’s my go-to,” she shared. “Straight and salty and not a lot of calories.”
Hudson also told PEOPLE that she hosts a lot of King St. cocktail hours on the set of her new podcast,Sibling Revelry, alongside brother Oliver.
“We’re having so much fun,” she said. “What’s interesting about the aftermath of starting the podcast is we didn’t realize the kind of impact that we were not only having on ourselves and our relationship but on other siblings.”
“It’s having a stronger impact than I think Oliver and I thought it would,” she added. “Everywhere I go, people are talking to me and opening up. They love it — and we love the dialogue it’s starting.”
