That's one way to have your morning coffee! Salma Hayek knows how to turn up the heat with her bikini selfies, but one snapshot in particular is difficult to erase from our minds.

During a sun-soaked vacation last year the actress posted a photo in her swimwear while drinking her daily dose of caffeine.

The Mexican beauty, 55, left her fans lost for words after sharing the summertime image of herself, sipping a coffee, and wearing nothing more than a two-piece, black swimsuit.

"You literally look like a greek queen waiting to be discovered," wrote one, with another pointing out, "age is just a number". 

Her celebrity friend, Eva Longoria, had her say too and commented: "Guapaaaa," the Spanish slang for "hot".

At the time, Salma was enjoying a holiday in Greece with her French billionaire husband, Francois-Henri Pinault.

Salma shared plenty of snaps from her vacation 

"Now, when I look in the mirror and there are things that I don’t see, I think about how much I’m going to like me in ten years."

Salma married Francois in Paris in 2009 and they are proud parents to their fourteen-year-old daughter, Valentina.

She had her only child at the age of 41 but insists being an older mum only improved her parenting. 

“I think I’m a better mother because I had her later,” she said, before admitting: "I do get tired. I’m not going to lie."

As for ageing gracefully? Salma insists when it comes to plastic surgery she "hasn’t done an-y-thing!"
