How do you make a classic Pimms using Pimms N# 1?
Answers:
Well don't fall for the "fruit salad" bit. You need a cucumber, apples, lemonade, lots of ice & the Pimm's of course!
Peel the cucumber carefully, you just need the skin, any white stuff spoils it. Core & slice the apple(s). Put both in the bowl & cover with a bottle of Pimm's.
Leave it for a few minutes, put the ice in & top up with lemonade 3 : 1.
Perfect for a summer party, well perfect anytime actually...
Update: Thanks Nemesis, we know about the extra gin ( & other stuff!), but we don't want to kill anybody do we? Cucumber peel is essential, but you wouldn't know the way you drink it!!
not 100% sure but i think it is something like, add things like sliced cucumber, strawberries, and some other fruit for colour, ice 1 part pimms and 5 parts lemonade.
Sweetheart the real secret is to put some extra gin in the mix, use a good quality lemonade, actually seven up is the best. Forget all the cucumber strawberry slices and other junk.
Keep it simple and enjoy the extra kick from the gin.
Put some ice in a jug or glass, pour in 1 part Pimms, top with 3 parts Lemonade, add some lemon slices and a few mint leaves.
Get out the deck chair, sit back and enjoy!
Essentials: slice cucumber, slice apple, sprig of mint, maraschino cherry...
1 part Pimm's x 5 parts lemonade (more Pimm's if you prefer stronger)...
Pour Pimm's in a tumbler, add lemonade, gently swizzle then add above ingredients Wedge another slice of apple onto side of glass, stab another cherry with cocktail umbrella and poke into apple!
Finish off with two colourful bendy straws - and enjoy!!
Add ice if preferred...
