Pimm's Cup

A Pimm's Cup is simply divine. All of the elements involved are refreshing which makes it a perfect cocktail for summer...here is my spin on the classic:You will need: (Makes two cocktails)1/2 cucumber, sliced1 Meyer Lemon, slice two wheels for a garnish then juicea handful of raspberries4 sprigs mint2 sprigs thyme1/2 teaspoon organic sugar1 rhubarb stalkginger beer, chilledsparkling water, chilled6 ounces Pimm's No. 1For each cocktail:Place a few slices of cucumber and a sprig of mint in a cocktail shaker. Muddle (you can use the handle of a wooden spoon if you don't own a muddler). Add 1/4 teaspoon sugar, 3 ounces Pimm's No. 1, and juice from half a lemon. Add ice and shake. Pour into your serving vessel of choice. Add about 1/2 cup of sparkling water and a splash of ginger beer. Garnish with rhubarb, lemon and cucumber wheel, 1 sprig each mint and thyme, and a raspberry. Cheers!Photo by N.C. WinslowRecipe + Styling by Cassie Winslow
