I love Pimms. Once saw it Oklahoma but never in Sacramento. Will definately be stocking up in duty free on my way back. I'm actually going to an RAF summer ball in June and can't wait for it to be Pimms O'clock!

The best mix is with sprite, ginger ale, chopped apples, pears, cucumber and mint leaves. I'll never forget the expression of disgust on my American boyfriends face when I put cucumber in his drink, but he was pleasantly surprised.

im still trying to persuade the local liquor store to stick Crabbies Ginger Wine for my husbands Whisky Mac's. Once we have that sorted I will ask about Pimms. I think it would be a great change from all those margarita parties my neighbours keep having!

haha - its actually the old neighbour hood we rented in but yes they are fab! We are supposed to play Bunco once a month - but it seems to be just an excuse to drink - which suits me fine except i can no longer walk home so cant drink and drive!

Our local liquor store was happy to get some for us - we're near Longmont, CO though ... I think it might be a case of 'where theres a will, theres a way'

Ta.
We have it in New York. You could ask your local bar if they could order a bottle and keep it on hand for you. You could also ask your local liquor store to order some as well. When I managed bar I used to order specific bottles of Liquor if I had a regular who would drink it.

around here, they'd ask you to buy a case of the stuff, which ain't cheap...but some Austrian bloke bought a few cases of what was the local brew where my brother used to live and I was able to blag a couple of bottles which was nice
