New Pimms

Post by p.penn »

Oooh - I am just sipping my first glass of a new variety of Pimms - blackberry and elderflower - and very nice it is too! Has anyone else tried it?

Oh my Helen you are so posh - are you wearing a slinky little number and wearing your Chanel perfume ?












No I haven't tried it but it does sound rather refreshing - whenever we get some sun I may just treat myself as a celebration !

We (June) has been looking for some of that for ages, even waitrose doesn’t stock it here and I am not going into pestco to have a look. Is it nice? Does it taste like blackberry jam with elderflower undertones?

It is absolutely delicious, but far too easy to drink! I got mine from w/rose - it was on offer. I am surprised your local branch don't stock it. :?

\did I mention it was absolutely delicious? {rofwl}
