Pimm's Cup is the taste of a British summer: Pimm's No.1 and lemonade with strawberries, cucumber, orange and mint. A jug of it is a garden party essential.

Ingredients

  • 50ml Pimm's No.1
  • 150ml chilled lemonade
  • Strawberries, sliced
  • Cucumber, sliced
  • Orange, sliced
  • Fresh mint
  • Ice

Method

  1. Fill: Fill a tall glass or jug with ice and add the fruit, cucumber and mint.
  2. Pour: Add one part Pimm's.
  3. Top: Top with three parts lemonade and stir gently.

Tips for the Perfect Pimm's Cup

  • Use British-style clear, fizzy lemonade rather than cloudy still lemonade.
  • Make it in a big jug for a crowd: keep the same 1:3 ratio.
  • Add a splash of ginger ale for extra spice.

Good to Know

Pimm's No.1 is a gin-based fruit cup at 25% ABV. It was created in the 1800s by James Pimm, who ran an oyster bar in the City of London, and it is now poured by the jug at Wimbledon.

Please drink responsibly. Know your limits, and never drink and drive.
