Congrats to Prince William and Kate!: Chicago Date Ideas

Congrats to the new Royal Couple!

This calls for a toast. Perhaps a Pimm’s Cup? What the “fig” is a Pimm’s Cup you ask? It is a classic English cocktail created in London back in 1840. Doesn’t it look so refreshing?

Ingredients:
• 3/4 cup Pimm’s No. 1 – a gin based-apertif with fruit juices and spices
• 2 cups ginger ale, chilled
• 1 1/3 cups sparkling water, chilled
• 4 lemon slices
• 1 medium cucumber, halved lengthwise and cut into 4 spears

 
I know how I will be celebrating this Friday night. Cheerio!
