Cool and Refreshing Pimm’s Punch

downtonabbeycooks · August 23, 2018 ·

In the 1840s, James Pimm invented Pimm’s, the iconic English gin based drink.  It was first touted as a health tonic, now it serves as refreshing addition to many summer cocktails.  Pimm’s Punch is delightful colorful and fruity drink which is a great addition to garden party and picnic menus. Pimm’s has only 1 g of carbs so a perfect keto drink option.
