Every effort to admit latecomers will be made at a suitable break in the event, but admission cannot always be guaranteed. Yes, I’m amused that you noticed this. I did intentionally avoid describing the book as 'feminist; (although many of the women I profile are feminists themselves, and I describe them within the book as such). And when we were working on the cover copy, I said to my editor, 'The sales people are probably going to try to get the word ‘feminist’ in there, aren’t they.' There has also been a lot of discussion about how feminism has become mainstream to the point that the word sometimes has lost its meaning. I ’ m curious as to whether you thought about this when you came up with, and wrote, the book. I noticed that the word ' feminism' is not included in it, which made me wonder if that was a conscious decision. Was that the case? I didn’t see Gin Buddy No.1 until the 21st December when she presented me with a belated birthday pressie, I excitedly ripped open the paper (I love opening presents) to reveal a very intriguing book. Lately, lots of books highlight ' sheroes' of history. Yours include 60 iconic women. I ’ d love to hear about some of the women that, perhaps, young UK readers aren ’ t that familiar with. Could you give me one or two examples of amazing women you ’ ve discovered or whose histories have surprised you while writing the book?

The promoter, venue management and DesignMyNight accept no responsibility for any personal property. She's also collaborated a lot with Bjork and has won the Polaris Prize, which is Canada’s equivalent of the Mercury Prize. She does a modern version of Inuit throat-singing which is really intense and awe-inspiring. Another interesting one is Edith Head, because you’ve probably seen her work without ever knowing it was hers. She was one of the most prolific and powerful costume designers in Hollywood, and reigned over the fashion in films for more than 50 years.Can you explain how you took each women ’ s work, life, drink preferences, style and personality – and translated that into a drink? It sounds convoluted! I approached each drink on a really individual basis. Before starting, I’d read as much as I could about the woman’s life and see what ingredients felt natural to associate with her. Rather than a dilution, I think this book can be a starting point: I hope it introduces readers to women they might not know and inspires further reading or observation. That could mean going off and reading Maya Angelou’s memoirs for the first time, or doing a deep-dive into Beyonce’s albums and discovering their brilliance. It would have been fun to make her something spicy – I mean, she loves hot sauce – or, thinking off the cuff here, maybe something with a jammy, berry-flavoured base to play with the “jelly” from “Bootylicious.” Or something more serious with French champagne, since the Louvre is now offering Beyoncé-themed tours. The woman has layers! Free the Tipple pays tribute to a brilliant range of diverse women from the 20th century to today who have made waves in entertainment, the arts, politics, fashion, literature, sports, and science, including Frida Kahlo, Rihanna, Serena Williams, Virginia Woolf, Yoko Ono, Zaha Hadid, Marlene Dietrich, Zadie Smith, and more.
