As British as strawberries and cream, Pimm’s was originally blended by James Pimm as an aid to digesting oysters, and has been around since 1840.
The original Pimm’s No.1 Cup is a gin-based spirit with a fruity flavour, made from a secret recipe infusing gin with a delicate combination of herbal botanicals, caramelised orange and warm spices.
