I can remember trying it at Wimbledon once and thought it was horrible, although it was ready mixed from a can, but you cant go wrong for that price

So, apart from whatever it was mixed with in the can, what can you mix it with?

The can ones are really strong! - if you mix it yourself your more likely to put more soft drink in that the alchol.. just down to personal preference i guess..

You can mix it with more or less anything.. fizzy drinks work best though i find.. I like mixing mine with the Asda rashberry lemonade.. yummy!

I find this copy to be abit nicer than the Pimms original.. as it doesn't have that bitter after taste.. maybe its just me?

Bargin though! I'm lucky.. got 2 aldi's near me.. so might be sneaky and nip into both of them.. beats the £10 a litre real Pimms at sainsburys and tescos..

Pimm's recommend 1 part Pimm's to 3 parts lemonade, pubs and restaurants often do it weaker than this.

I wonder what the mix is for the canned version then.. as it tastes soo soo strong!

We like ours with Ginger ale and lots of fruit and ice.

This. It's much nicer than Lemonade.
