Chef's Notes
Pimm's is essentially the liquid spirit of a British summer garden party. Never skip the muddling step; bruising that cucumber releases essential oils that elevate this drink from a simple cocktail to an absolute masterpiece.
Pro Tip
Chill your glassware in the freezer for at least ten minutes before assembling. A frosty glass keeps your drink crisper for longer on a warm afternoon.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Forgetting to strain your muddled cucumber bits out before pouring, resulting in a drink that constantly clogs your straw like a swamp monster.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
They call it a 'refreshing summer drink,' which is code for 'it's too hot to actually do any work.'
The Culinary Science
Carbon dioxide bubbles in ginger beer act as microscopic elevators, lifting aromatic compounds from the mint, cucumber, and Pimm's straight to your nose with every single sip.
