Here is what you will need to make a Pimm's Cup, a recent cocktail of the week at The Harbour Cocktail bar in Carrickfergus.

Prep your glass. Place a few mint leaves at the bottom of a zombie glass and fill with ice. Add some slices of fruit. We used orange, lemon and strawberry but this IS Pimm's so go mad with it!

Add 35ml of Pimm's to a Boston shaker

Next, add 15ml of Bombay Sapphire

Then add 15ml of sugar syrup. Sugar syrup is easy to make but if you don't have any then a teaspoon or so of caster sugar will do the job.

Fill the Boston with ice and close with the tin. Shake until the tin frosts over.

Strain into your zombie glass

Top up with white lemonade

Et voila, a lovely summer drink with a kick of gin to keep things interesting. Look out for a new cocktail of the week from us every week or call down and try one before we publish it!
