Hi Lukey  I looked on a bottle of Pimms as I am sure you have and it says it is a closely guarded secret known only by six people ,so this is probably another one of lifes little mysteries ,I would like to know what is in it as well,it makes a nice hot summer drink .

I used to love it years ago, then suddenly the Proof was reduced.  The Pimms now is much weaker.  Can't remember the per cent, but I was very upset at the time and I rarely drink it now.  Makes economic sense from the manufacturer's viewpoint, as I suppose people drink lots more.

Also, hardly any bar or pub has the trimmings I like.  I thought the piece of cucumber and sprig of mint were very important, as was the piece of apple swizzled round.
