She lived through the Great Depression, outlived her two husbands, and in 2016, Mildred Bowers is still going strong.

At almost 103-years-old, Millie (as her friends call her,) is not only looking great, her mind is as sharp as ever.

In an interview with news station WCSC Live 5 News, Bowers revealed her secret to living so long.

“Have a beer,” she said, “Doctor’s orders.”

Every day at 4pm is beer o’clock for Millie at the assisted living facility.
