Nothing beats a glass of Pimms on a summer’s day…except maybe a jug of Pimms on a summer’s day.
Here is our Pimms Cup recipe from The Living Space, with a little Watergate twist; instead of lemonade, we mix ours with ginger ale.
Ingredients
70ml Pimms No1
2 strawberries
3 slices of cucumber
10 mint leaves
1 slice orange
Ginger ale
Ice
Glass: Tall
Method
- Slice and dice all of the fruit and set to one side.
- Put all 10 mint leaves into your hand and clap hard (once). This should release the flavours and aromas of the mint giving your drink an extra punch.
- Put the fruit, mint leaves and ice into the glass.
- Add the 70ml of Pimms No1.
- Top up with ginger ale.
- Garnish with a slice of cucumber and mint leaves
