The Pimm’s tradition is almost as entrenched in British culture as the cup of tea. All it takes is a bit of good weather and pubs and bars miraculously start offering gallons of the stuff - often at stupendous prices!

For a fraction of the price, you can make it yourself the traditional way or drink it in style as a crème’ cocktail! It is also the perfect drink for the Wimbledon tennis whilst standing in the queues to get that ticket!

Traditional Pimms

1 slice per person of orange, lemon, apple, cucumber
1 sprig of mint
2 parts lemonade to 1 part Pimms
Add strawberries for a true touch of Wimbledon

Bitter sweet banana Pimms

1 shot Pimms
1/2 shot gin
1 shot Bols creme de bananes
1 shot rosso vermouth
1 shot Rose’s lime juice
3 dash Angostura bitters

Shake, strain into a cocktail glass, and serve in a martini glass.
