recipe: pimm's pitcher

Serves 4
1 C soda water
1 C fresh sweetened lemonade
3 C Pimm’s No. 1
1/2 apple sliced thin
1/2 orange sliced thin
1/2 lemon sliced thin
1/2 english cucumber sliced thin
few sprigs of mint

Directions:
Fill a pitcher with soda water, lemonade and Pimm’s. Stir to mix and serve over ice. Garnish each glass with sliced cucumber, apple, lemon, orange and mint. Can be made in advance and kept cold in the refrigerator.

Adam’s hints:
—no one wants to leave guests to keep running into the kitchen to mix another cocktail, so make pitchers of drinks and set up an easily accessible bar area complete with all the fixings.
—unless they’ll be served right away, keep the ice on the side when mixing pitchers of drinks to avoid melted ice diluting the cocktail.
