One highlight from our July London trip was an afternoon spent at BAFTA – the British Academy of Film and Television.
While our host happily sipped a whisky, my body clock was still on Toronto time and it just was not saying whisky. Seriously. There are times I’m not actually in the mood for a whisky. I know you don’t believe me, but it is true!
So our host suggested a light Pimm’s cocktail. How quintessentially British.
For those not familiar with Pimm’s No 1 Cup is a gin based liqueur with herbs that’s been around since 1823 tasting of citrus and spice…
It was completely refreshing and utterly perfect for the mood and moment.
While I can’t say exactly what I had, this one struck me as a similarly refreshing combination…
Pimm’s Original
2 measures of Pimm`s
2 measure of Ginger Beer
2 measures of Lemonade
1 slice of Cucumber
1 slice of Lemon
1 slice of Orange
1 slice of strawberry
Fresh Mint
Now… if only I could get Pimm’s in Mumbai!!
