Pimm's history

PIMM’S, SERVED

The Pimm’s No.1 Cup blend of gin liquors, fruit extracts and herbs is still made to the original 1840 recipe by James Pimm. It first became popular as a digestif at his London oyster bar and its iconic status cemented with the arrival of a Pimm’s bar at the 1971 Wimbledon tennis championships.

ICE ICE BABY

No matter what you use in your Pimm’s mix, don’t forget to add ice to the glass first. Use plenty of it (preferably in cube form), otherwise it’ll melt too quickly and dilute your Pimm’s. You can find ice, and other ingredients for classic Pimm’s, here.
