The Rook’s Gin and Tonic Week
Celebrate the classic cocktail all week long.
Overview
Time to brush up on your gin. The Rook is celebrating Gin & Tonic day with a week of celebrations, so expect lots of homages to the versatile spirit. It kicks off on Monday with the usual monthly meeting of gin lovers at the Rook, the Juniper Society (named after the plant gin is infused with). Anticipate an array of modern twists on the classic G&T from some of Sydney's best bartenders.
Slated for the celebration on April 9 — the official International Gin & Tonic Day—includes lemon sorbet inspired by the spirit of the week and music by Sydney-based Rainbow Chan. $5 Tanqueray will be on tap all night, making sure everyone gets their Gin & Tonic fix.
Friday promises to be a French-inspired gin day, with French pop being spun all night by So Frenchy So Chic and Daniel Clement. G&Ts with a sophisticated twist of G'Vine gin are not to be missed either.
