Pimm's Liqueur No.1

The perfect summer drink. If you've never tried a Pimms cup, you owe it to yourself (you deserve it!) to try it. The perfect Pimms cup is the matter of much debate, but the important thing is that you use what the Limeys call "proper" lemonade, which is a slightly fermented version of 7up. I like using Pellegrino Limonata, or, if you're feeling daring, you can use Mike's Hard Lemonade or something similar. You'll also need an English cucumber (NOT optional in my book), and various other things that may not be easy to find (what's a "borage?"). Pimm's is very much a SUMMER drink, to be drunk on a hot, uncomfortable day while watching cricket at Lord's, or worse, Headlingly. But it is DIVINE. Get yerself a bottle and google yerself a good recipe and when it's hot, go at it!
