Pomelo Pink Grapefruit & Wormwood Gin

Worms. The chimps have a complicated relationship with worms. We need to make sure we take our monthly tablets. One chimp can’t say the word without adding a superfluous “p”. One chimp collects them in their dungarees to eat later when they are dry and tastier. One thing we have not done, however, is add them to our gin.  Someone appears to have done it for us though.

Hmm I’m going to have to stop drinking this Pomelo Pink Grapefruit and Wormwood gin….it’s not a great hardship as I can’t really taste much grapefruit and it has a distinctly musty flavour which just on the drinkable side of unpleasant.
