Pimm's 2 to 5 are no longer made
They do make a bramble and elderflower one as a " special edition" I wouldn't recommend it.
They also make a Winter Warmer which is popular in , er, cold weather. You put a stick of cinnamon and some grated nutmeg in a glass or whatever,add the Pimm's and then fill up with warmed apple juice or cider. A favourite with certain ladies of my acquaintance but I eschew it in favour rib warming rum

Whatever happened to Pimm's Cups 2 through 5? I remember them from the China Fleet Club in Hong Kong in the early 60's.

Had my first Pimm's Cup at the Chelsea Flower Show in 2011, and it was lovely! A year later, the Philadelphia Flower Show had a British theme, and when we asked at the cocktail kiosks for a Pimm's, the bartender misheard us and added an additional "P" to the beverage's name... Philly being just a bit less genteel than London! We settled for the Chardonnay instead.

Have you ever thought about trying Sipsmith Summer Cup - it's like Pimm's but subtler and hand-crafted - http://www.sipsmith.com/blog/articles/sipsmith-summer-cup-how-to-make-the-perfect-pimms-alternative

Thank you! You and two red bowls are too nice. We need to have a Brooklyn meet-up.

I found this really interesting to read, as as a Brit, using the same measured attitude towards mixing up Pimm's (I still think making it as a single cocktail instead of a jug is strange, but I can see its benefits) is pretty alien to me!
