About this deal

Never Never Fancy Fruit Cup is from South Australia, made in a collaboration between Never Never Distilling Co. and Marionette Liqueurs. It uses gin as a base, to which is added Marionette’s aged orange Curacao; Earl Grey tea completes the recipe. Launched in 2003 and produced by the makers of Plymouth Gin, it is one of the strongest fruit cups at 30% ABV, which Plymouth says gives it a fuller flavour. [ citation needed] It is the result of the base of Plymouth Gin being mixed with fruit liqueurs, vermouths, aromatic bitters and citrus extracts.

The Three Drinkers How to serve the perfect Pimms — Spirits — The Three Drinkers

These adverts enable local businesses to get in front of their target audience – the local community. Very much its own style this one, with plenty of table appeal and a lighter colour in the glass. Think cola cubes and wild strawberry sweets with a bite of bitter bark on the finish and decent weight from the higher alcohol level. If Pimm’s did a posh rosé, this would be it. A great one to gift someone this summer. Made by the Plymouth Gin Company, it was based on Plymouth Gin, and flavoured with fruit extracts, bitters, Bols Dry Orange Curaçao, Cherry Heering cherry liqueur, Punt e Mes bitters, and vermouth. Fruit cups are most popular in the UK, followed by Australia and New Zealand, although it’s worth noting that the drink also has an unexpected foothold in the city of New Orleans, where it has been a signature drink at the Napoleon House since the 1940s.Summer, as long as the weather holds out, is a time for picnics and barbecues; a time when many of us are looking for cooling drinks to share with friends. Many people’s go-to for a refreshing and social drink is a shared jug of fruit cup, of which the most famous and long-established brand is Pimm’s. Stone’s Summer Cup was launched in 2006 by the makers of Stone’s Ginger Wine based on a traditional recipe with a ginger note. This product is a mixture of spirits and vermouth, with the addition of botanical distillates of strawberry, cucumber, orange, and mint.

Austin’s Summer Punch Aldi — Spirits — The Three Drinkers

A fruit or summer cup is essentially a bottled punch that is served by lengthening it with a mixer – typically sparkling lemonade or ginger ale – and garnishing it with various fruits, peels, and leaves. A fruit cup can be made using any alcohol as its base, but the most commonly used spirit is gin. This is often mixed with vermouth or other fortified wines and liqueurs such as ginger wine or orange curacao to add sweetness. Producers may also undertake additional distillations or macerations of botanicals to increase the complexity of the cup’s flavour profile.It is a flavoursome fruit cup with a great combination of succulent fruitiness and earthy, herbal bitterness. The sweetness is balanced and the flavour profile is probably the closest to the fruit cups of old. For me, it’s a top choice for a Fruit Cup Royale – that is, a drink consisting of fruit cup added to a champagne flute and topped up with sparkling wine. A twist of orange peel really sets the drink off. Not identical to Pimm’s but actually better, in my opinion. More layers of flavour, well balanced and bitter with a yummy, yeasty note like baking bread. For half the price, lower alcohol (not that you’d know) and another 250ml to boot, this Austin’s is properly awesome. Well done, Aldi!

LAUNCH OF THE PLYMOUTH GIN GARDEN AT THE WIGMORE THE LAUNCH OF THE PLYMOUTH GIN GARDEN AT THE WIGMORE

The Langham’s bars and restaurants include the award-winning Palm Court, Artesian Bar, Landau restaurant and The Wigmore, all overseen by culinary icons Michel Roux Jr. Chuan Spa Body + Soul provides a pampering haven and is London’s first luxury hotel spa to incorporate the ancient principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine into its signature treatments and ambience. For the price tag, this is an ‘ok’ copy and it tastes exactly how the bottle looks: a bit simple and thin. This summer cup is more like a sweet, orange cordial and feels like it’s missing something, though it leaves a lot of froth. The simplicity is reflected in the lower price, at least. Today, there is a wide range of products beyond Pimm’s on the market, many of which are coming from the newer, smaller distilleries. They include those based in the UK, Ireland, USA, and Australia; here, we take a closer look at some choice examples. Plymouth Fruit Cup & Ginger Ale is a quintessentially summery drink. (Image: Plymouth Gin Distillery) A quintessentially summery drink which brings together the rich fruit flavours of Plymouth Fruit Cup with the spicy elements of ginger and is topped off perfectly with refreshing notes of citrus, cucumber and mint as well as the sweeter notes of the summer fruits.This summer, The Wigmore, a modern British tavern on Regent Street by The Langham, London, has partnered with Plymouth Gin to transform its courtyard into a botanical gin garden featuring climbing plants, self-garnish pots on tables and interactive masterclasses. Since alcohol was considered 19th-century medicine, Pimm’s marketed his drink as a health tonic – much like how Dr Pemberton took a concoction from Jacob’s Pharmacy and mixed it with carbonated water and sold Coca-Cola as a “brain tonic.” Pimm’s health tonic was a hit and he started bottling and selling it. It spread all over the British empire to India, Canada, Australia, and the Caribbean. This fruit cup is made by Curio Spirits in Mullion, Cornwall. It is made using Curio Dry Gin as a base, along with homegrown lemon verbena and Cornish honey, as well as chai spices and tea from Assam. Those who prefer still drinks might try lengthening this cup with freshly-made ice tea.
