About this deal

Royal Ascot is one of the most prestigious horse racing events in the world, and it’s also a great place to enjoy a Pimm’s. The drink is often served in the Royal Enclosure, where guests can sip on a Pimm’s Cup while watching the races. Even at offer prices, Pimm's is still pricier than supermarket rivals. If you want the biggest savings a supermarket brand is your best bet. Best Pimm's offers we found

Pimm's can also be mixed with champagne (or other sparkling white wines), resulting in a drink known as a "Pimm's Royal Cup". Pimm's Winter Cup is generally mixed with warm apple juice. A "Glasgow Garden Party" is a drink made with Pimm's substituting lemonade with Irn Bru excluding any fruit garnish. A "Pimmlet" is a Gimlet with Pimm's No.1 substituted for gin. A Pimm's mojito substitutes lemon and lime soda with muddled limes and soda water. [5] History [ edit ] Seven Pimm's products have been produced throughout the brand's history, all fruit cups differing only in their alcoholic base. [16] Only Nos. 1, 6, and a 'Winter Cup' based on No. 3 remain in production. It was originally in 26 2⁄ 3 imperial oz. [757-ml] bottles, then made in standard metric 26.4 imperial oz. [750-ml] bottles when it started being sold overseas in Europe, and now is in 700-ml and 1-litre bottles. The beverages were originally a standard 60 Proof (or 31.53% Alcohol by volume), then curbed to 55 Proof (28.90% ABV) in the 1960s, and are now only about 44 Proof (25% ABV).

Drinking guidelines

In previous years, there's been a wider choice of own-brand fruit cup drinks from supermarkets, but we found there were fewer this year. We tested all the options available at the time. Classic Pimm’s is a quintessentially British alcoholic liqueur or “cup” that was first invented by James Pimm in 1840 to serve at his London oyster bar. Fans of the Greyson’s Pink Gin & Tonic can now get their favourite tipple in a slimline form! A light and refreshing G&T, this RTD is perfectly mixed with pink berries, dry gin and slimline tonic to create an elegant and smooth taste which is easy on the waistline.

Pimm’s Royale: Add a splash of champagne or sparkling wine to your Pimm’s Cup for a touch of elegance. The Pimm’s recipe is kept a secret, but we do know that their No. 1 Cup is made out of gin, caramelised orange and a carefully selected range of herbal botanicals and spices (not unlike Craft Gin Club’s Summer Garden Cup!). Can you get drunk on Pimm’s?

This tipple is a decadent combination of sweet, spicy and fruity, with a warming taste of fiery ginger, finishing with juniper and citrus – heaven in a tin! Pimm's No. 2 Cup [1930s–1970] was based on Scotch whisky, and was phased out by new brand owners The Distillers Company in 1970.

Originally blended by James Pimm as an aid to digesting oysters in 1840, Pimm’s was also sent out to soldiers, served at Queen Victoria's lunches, and ended up making its debut at Wimbledon in 1971. If the flavour just isn't for you, have you tried Pimm's Sundowner? With flavours of redcurrant and raspberry, this is best served over ice - equal parts Pimm's and Prosecco, and topped up with soda water. A bit like a Pimm's-esque Aperol.

A Pimm’s cup is made with one part Pimm’s No. 1 to three parts lemonade, in a highball glass filled with lots of ice and garnished with the aforementioned. However, for me Pimm’s is a TOTAL sharing drink, so make up a big batch for your summer party so you’re not constantly playing bartender. The recipe below is great for about 8 servings. Here are some of the ways Pimm’s is enjoyed in different parts of the world. Pimm’s in the United States Pimm’s is a gin-based fruity spirit. A quintessentially British liqueur, it’s made by infusing gin with a secret concoction of botanicals, caramelised orange and warm spices. The classic Pimm’s Cup is served with lemonade, mint, cucumber, and strawberries, making it the perfect refreshment for a hot day at the tennis. Pimm’s at the Chelsea Flower Show
