Review:
Vodka's clean neutrality allows the fruity flavours in this summery cocktail to shine. Of the original line-up of seven different Pimm's spirit bases, only No.1 (gin-based) still serves but No.6, which had a vodka base, clung onto life longer than the other five.
History:
Created in June 2017 by yours truly at the Cabinet Room, London, England. For more recipes and history see Fruit Cups and Pimm's.
