Book: ‘Normal People’ by Sally Rooney
I’m enough of a basic bitch to want my February read to be somewhat about love and relationships, and I’m super excited to get stuck into this one! Rooney has been hailed as a “voice of millennials” and both her book and the recent television adaptation (which she wrote the screenplay for) have received high praise and award nods.
Gin: Chinnery Dublin Dry Gin
Distilled in Dublin & Cork, inspired by southern China’s old Canton past. “Chinnery Gin evokes the romance and flavours of the Old China Trade with sweet oolong tea, spicy cassia bark and wonderfully fragrant osmanthus flowers.”
As our February book is set in Ireland, and I am diving into its world from Hong Kong, this seemed the perfect first choice for The Juniper Gin & Book Club! Enjoy with your favourite tonic and a slice of grapefruit.
