American actor Ryan Reynolds is back to his comedic ways in a new spot for Aviation American Gin — all while promoting his new film, "Deadpool & Wolverine," and celebrating Father's Day

In a 90-second spot, he teaches viewers how to create the "happiest drink on earth," the Vasectomy, in true Deadpool fashion.

"It's Father's Day, and because somehow, I keep having kids, this year, we're taking our annual Vasectomy up a notch," Reynolds starts off the spot. 

He then takes us through mixing the cocktail.

First, he pours an ounce of cranberry juice into an ice-filled glass, before adding three ounces of tonic — in his case, tonic from his wife Blake Lively's brand, Betty Buzz.

Then, he adds a dash of lemon juice and one-and-a-half ounces of Aviation American Gin.

"It's the same delicious Aviation Gin, but with 100% more Deadpool," Reynolds tells the audience as he stirs the contents of the glass and tops it off with garnish.

It's the perfect drink for a pair of 40-something dads "pretending they're not too arthritic to pull off a superhero movie," Reynolds quips as the spot ends. 

Throughout the advert, clips from the upcoming Marvel film are inserted in between Reynolds' cocktail-making, providing both comic relief and a sneak peek into the movie. 

'Deadpool & Wolverine' Copies 'Beauty & the Beast'

Deadpool & Wolverine's fun film promotions don't end there. 

Following their viral popcorn bucket marketing stunt, as well as a hilarious spot in partnership with Heineken Silver, the franchise is back with a parody of the classic Disney film, "Beauty & the Beast."

The post, which mimics the classic animated film's promotional poster, from the color-grading down to the typography, sees Wolverine and Deadpool embracing each other as they dance around floating bullets and superhero emblems.

Deadpool & Wolverine hits the theatres on July 26.
