Do I like Pimms?

I’m planning a jug of G&T with some nibbles when I settle down with OH to watch the Djokovic/Norrie match this afternoon. Was looking forward to the battle between Nadal and Kyrgios but evidently, Nadal has pulled out because of injury. Shame - hope he makes a good recovery.

I love Pimms on a hot day and so do my friends .
It's a gin based drink .
We like it with lots of ice , thinly sliced cucumber, oranges and strawberries .

And I make a gin and tonic -
adding lot of crushed ice and thinly sliced lemon and limes with the tonic .

Here's a recipe for punch from my Indian Raj born friend :

Make a huge pot of very strong tea .
Let it go stone cold .
In a huge bowl - add a carton of orange juice and / or tropical fruit juice , some ginger beer , a lot of rum and a mixture of fruit with ice .
I've made it with pineapple juice and pieces of pineapple .
Punch comes from the Hindi word for five , because it originally had five ingredients .

5 o’clock somewhere LauraNorderr ?

Red wine with ice come 6pm.
Haven`t tasted Pimms and i don`t do spirits,of the liquid variety that is.

I stick with a G&T, I KNOW i like that for sure!!!

Me too. I’ll make one (or two) later ?

Aldi and Lidl make their own version of Pimm's which is lovely. You can also buy small cans ready mixed. Try one of these to see if you like it.

I was given some Aperol Spritz not long ago by a SiL who told me it was ‘very fashionable’ - she’s someone who cares about such things.
TBH I’d prefer a Pimm’s any day, or a good old G&T.

I have already planned my Aperol Spritz for my 6pm pre dinner drink!

I love Pimm’s but IMO it’s something to make with advanced notice - have I also got lemonade, enough ice, mint, cucumber, strawberries?

I made a couple of really big jugfuls recently at a big family meet-up cum Big Birthday celebration in France. It all went so fast, I was cursing myself for not having brought more Pimm’s.

Drink water.

The online marketing is creepy. It seems I only have to think about something and up pops a related ad.
I love Pimms, we make it with ginger beer instead of lemonade, ooh lovely. What time is it?

I stick with a G&T, I KNOW i like that for sure!!!

Also, it isn't even midday
