Slow Travel – The Beauty of Standing Still
Travel expert Amanda Hyde, who has written for Condé Nast Traveller and The Telegraph, explores the art of slow travel across southern Italy.
Since its creation by James Pimm in 1823, the colourful Pimm's cocktail has become a ubiquitous part of the British summer. Fresh and fruity, it's also de rigueur at popular summer events like the Wimbledon Tennis Championships, where the first Pimm's bar opened in 1971.
Master mixologist Salvatore Calabrese's twist on this classic serve pays homage to the prestigious tournament, incorporating Champagne, berries and a bright strawberry garnish in its honour. Aptly named ‘Match Point’, create this refreshing cocktail at home, or visit the Donovan Bar to sip one crafted by the Maestro himself.
Ingredients (serves one)
30ml Pimm's
20ml Amaro Averna
10ml Crème de Mure
10ml Lemon juice
Champagne to top up
Method
Gently mix Pimm's, Amaro Averna and Crème de Mure together in a glass
