Drink of the month
I don't usually take requests for posts, but Mary Beth's idea of posting a 'drink of the month' (actually, the idea was 'beer of the month' or 'wine of the month', but I figured 'drink' gave me a little more lattitude) was so good I thought I should do it.Who? see previous post.
What? Pimm's Rangoon.
Where? East Village.
When? In the UK they have a series of Pimm's advertisements that say 'It's Pimm's O'clock', meaning that any time is a good time for Pimm's. While this is probably true, a Pimm's Rangoon (or any Pimm's drink, really) is best enjoyed on a warm summer day. Then again, if it's winter, you could turn up the heat in your apartment and it would be just as refreshing.
Why? Because sometimes you want a cocktail that tastes good (i.e., not like alcohol), isn't pink, and doesn't come in one of those wimpy little martini glasses.
How? With caution. This drink really does go down easy, and if you want to get up before three O'clock the day after Pimms O'clock, you might want to take it easy.

I gotta say, we just had a bunch of these Pimms Ragoon's up at Milk and Honey in London. Great minds start to converge at a single point, where at that point the world collapses backward upon itself.

Although I like to think of myself as a great mind (despite the fact that no one else does), I have never had a Pimm's Rangoon (sp?). I look forward to trying it!
