Cocktail Description

The Mulberry Pimm's Twist transforms a British summertime classic into something unexpectedly luscious with its berry-forward complexity.

This sophisticated cocktail balances the botanical notes of Beefeater gin with rich, jammy mulberry sweetness, while Pimm's No. 1 adds its signature spiced warmth and herbal depth. Fresh lemon juice cuts through the sweetness with bright acidity, and the elderflower pressé finish brings floral effervescence that lifts the entire drink. Despite its impressive flavor profile, it's relatively straightforward to make, requiring basic shaking techniques and the simple step of dissolving jam into gin. Perfect for late spring garden parties or sophisticated brunches, this cocktail shines when British weather finally turns fair. The Mulberry Pimm's Twist pairs beautifully with light fare like cucumber sandwiches, grilled seafood, or summer salads featuring goat cheese and berries.
