ORIGINAL — Pimm’s Splash

June 10, 2010 (Day 131) — Pimm’s Splash

I’ve got Pimm’s. Want to make a drink with Pimm’s? Let’s make a drink with Pimm’s.

An original drink with Pimm’s? Why the hell not.

The Pimm’s Splash:

1 oz Pimm’s No.1

2 oz. Bison Grass Vodka

.5 oz fresh-squeezed lemon juice

Ginger ale

Combine your Pimm’s, vodka, and juice in a cocktail shaker and shake until chilled and well mixed. Pour into a highball glass filled with ice. Top with ginger ale.

Pims No. 1

Very refreshing and crisp. You have a nice, orange, autumnal look to the drink, and the odd smooth spiciness of the Bison Grass Vodka is mellowed by the sweetness of the ginger ale and the floral flavor of the gin-based Pimm’s.

Great for back porch sipping.

Cheers!
