The rich, reddish colour of Pimm's No. 1 Cup, with its subtle taste of spice and citrus, was brought to life in 1840. The secret recipe of gin, herbs, and liqueur was mixed by James Pimm in his London Oyster Bar to aid the digestion of oysters. It was not only sent to soldiers at the very edge of the Empire, but was also served at Queen Victoria's luncheons.
The quintessentially English summertime drink. Perfectly served to share in a drinks pitcher on a hot summer's day, made with cucumber, lemon, strawberries, mint - top with lemonade, and you're winning!
For a twist, try topping with ginger ale. if you're feeling extra fancy, try a Pimm's Royale by topping with Champagne!
