COCKTAIL OF THE WEEK - PIMMS ROYALE
This week's cocktail is the perfect accompaniment to your VE Day picnic. It's a take on the classic Pimms cocktail but with a twist using Champagne or sparkling wine instead of lemonade to become the Pimms Royale.
Pimms No 1 cup was originally invented in 1823 as a tonic and an aid to digestion. It is a gin based drink containing a secret mixture of herbs and liqueurs.
We'd love to see your celebrations for VE Day please share them with us on social media using #CWHVEDAY or email competitions@countrywidehotels.co.uk
Good luck and happy cocktail creating!
