Martha Stewart loves a good thirst trap.

While chatting exclusively with PEOPLE about her partnership with Dunkin' to highlight the etiquette behind when and how to shake your iced coffee, the lifestyle guru, 82, also opens up about plans to post a sexy image of herself on Instagram sometime soon, like she famously did in summer 2020.

When asked if she has any plans to post a thirst trap before this summer's end, Stewart plays coy, explaining, "Who knows?"

"I'm leaving in a couple of hours to go to Greenland, so I doubt I'm going to be doing any thirst traps there," she continues. "But, you never can tell."

"Maybe there'll be a polar bear in the background," she adds with a laugh of snapping a potential thirst trap — an alluring photo showing off one's body — taken in the icy locale.

Stewart's now infamous photo, taken in July 2020, saw her posing for a sultry poolside selfie as she donned a black bathing suit and dewy makeup.

The Martha Stewart Living mogul later admitted to PEOPLE that she unknowingly took a "thirst trap," noting, "I took a pool selfie photo by mistake."

"I was trying to take a picture of the beautiful turquoise planter at the end of the pool, but the camera was on me, so I just snapped it," she continued.

"It looked so good, so I posted it," Stewart added. "I didn't know what a 'thirst trap' was, but now I do. Now I'm looking for the next thirst trap. I love doing those promiscuous, provocative things, because it's just fun."

Later in April 2021, Stewart revealed on an episode of The Ellen Degeneres Show with guest host Howie Mandel that she "got so many proposals and so many propositions" after posting the summertime photo.

"But I had to ignore all of them," Stewart explained. "I'm a very busy person."
