Pimm’s Cup
This drink is de rigueur at hoity-toity British summer festivities: Wimbledon, opera festivals, cricket matches, and other pinkie-erecting affairs. It’s usually heavily garnished with fruits like apples, strawberries, lemons and oranges, although some take it only with a thin slice of cucumber.
Ingredients
- 2 parts Gin apéritif
- 6 parts Ginger ale or Ginger beer or Sparkling water or Lemon-lime soda
Instructions
Build in the order given in a tall ice-filled glass. Garnish with whatever fruits you like, or just a spear of cucumber – even a few slices of lemon will do the trick.
