ounces
ginger ale
or lemon-lime soda
2
dashes

Notes
Mix up the Pimm’s Cup a few different ways:
Try it with different kinds of berries, depending on what’s in season.
Switch out the ginger ale for ginger beer for a stronger flavor.
Add fancy ice cubes, such as flower ice cubes or mint ice cubes.
Make it lighter with a splash of simple syrup and club soda or lightly flavored sparkling water instead of soda.
Use strawberry lemonade instead of lemon juice for a bright flavor.
