It’s time to ditch the canned vodka soda for your next girl’s night out (or in) because Maya Jama partnered with Gordon’s Gin to create ‘Clink with Pink’. Our national TV sweetheart is the new creative force promoting the iconic alcohol brand’s range, mixing her bubbly charisma in Gordon’s already sweet Gin.
As a Love Island presenter, Maya quickly gained fame for wanting to bring people together, so it seems perfect for the theme of her long-term partnership to be just that. In her own words, “Clink With Pink is all about being unapologetically yourself and having the best time with friends.”
When asked about the 28-year-old pop culture icon, the marketing director behind Gordon’s Gin said ‘We have been so inspired by Maya’s positive energy and authenticity that we couldn’t think of a better partner for our Premium Pink collection.”
To kick things off, the brand and Maya have already released two limited edition bottles emblazoned with her signature catchphrases ‘You’re a Limited Edition, My Love’ and ‘Cling Cling, My Honeys’. The partners have promised more limited editions to come, as well as cocktail recipes, a series of events, and one or two surprises. And if you’re wondering where the pink aspect comes from, it’s from the berries and currants that give the UK’s no.1 Gin label a candied and rosy taste.
The bottles dropped exclusively on Amazon yesterday at £17.50, alongside Maya’s first twist on a classic cocktail. Here’s the recipe for her ‘Gordon Pink Paloma’ so that when your order finally arrives, you’ll be ready to mix it up for your friends in no time!
