a walk and some Pimm’s
2011 October 10
If you haven’t tried this refreshing, very English drink, you really should.
One cool but bright Sunday afternoon we went for a walk in the Spring sunshine, enjoying the heat on our skin …
Then we had Pimm’s and Limonata, picking strawberries out of the glass afterwards. Just perfect.
Recipe:
Pimm’s Cup No.1
San Pellegrino Limonata
Ice cubes
Lemon slices
Diced strawberries
Options: diced cucumber and strawberries or diced strawberries and orange slices
Measure out Pimm’s and Limonata ratio 1-3 into glass tumblers. Add lemon and strawberries.

I haven’t had a single glass of Pimms this summer, mind you the weather has been dire. Adding the limonata is an inspired idea. I am now craving a glass of Pimms, although I like cucumber in mine
Cucumber is lovely in Pimms
Pimms and limonata sound refreshingly good together, I usually just have mine plain pimms but this looks so refreshing. Love it when you said you picked the strawberries out of the glass afterwards
love the photos.
Thanks Ali
Pimm’s is so underused in the cocktail world. Its one of my fave refreshing drinks. I usually mix it with ginger ale but San Pellegrino Limonata sounds perfect for a hot summer evening. If you love Pimm’s, you should also try Tuaca. Its a vanilla citrus liqueur- mix with muddled limes and oranges and top with a slash of seltzer. It goes down fast so be careful! Cheers!
