I happen to find the cucumber really ties together the drink and without it the drink is harsh so I always have slice or two of cucumber even if I don’t have the other fruit.
I’ve had the Christmas Pimm’s when I was in the UK over the Yuletide. I didn’t actually know what to mix it with! I have to see if my buddy can have his family send a bottle this year now that you mention it. Never had the vodka one.
You have only scratched the surface of my Anglophilia!
The brandy one: ginger ale. It’s actually ok, like a sweet Moscow Mule without the lime.
The vodka cup - just mix with Schweppes Tonic water.
One other thing for the compost: a mint leaf or two. But not muddled. Just torn.
I loathe cucumber. So I am prejudiced.
Next time you’re over, drop me a line. Pretty sure you can work out who I am IRL. I’ll take you for a nice warm beer or seven. In mugs.
Next year will be all about celebrating with the fights!

ETA - is this why they paved over the rose garden???
To be fair, we were a bit busy eyeing up control of a quarter of the world…
And now?
Now we just watch you lot fuck things up!
Once a great world player, now just watching from the stands, yelling at clouds. Hate to see it.
Once the great world player. No competition. Like Rome. Or the Ottomans.
And you’re all very welcome for having been gifted industrialisation. That’s the reason you don’t commute on a horse.
All good things come to an end. The US’s time may be coming to an end courtesy of wilful implosion. Better to fade away and leave a legacy than to blast your own dick off while an idiot pulls you into a septic tank? I’d say so.
Some of us are still pissed about this “improvement”.
The GOAT.

Brother, you’re living it!
Were you aiming for least American drink to toast America?

They do a nice job. It’s just a mess getting home with half the people driving like idiots on the way home
I think I’d like the #3.
I have mint in my garden so sometimes throw it in.
Pimms is a permanent beverage in my summer rotation. I get really annoyed when I go someplace and order one and it’s trash.
I probably won’t hop the pond for a few years since Breezy taps out at about 3 hours on a flight but I’ll take you up on the beer offer. (And maybe you can help me find a pub I went to that I thought was really interesting but forgot the name)
