Welcome to the Drinking and Winning Blog Hop.

Blogiversary Day 1:
Reading Romances is celebrating their BLOGIVERSARY!
 Let's Party!

I've been a fan of the Reading Romances Blog for quite a while now. I enjoy their honest reviews. Recently, they asked me to help them celebrate their blogiversary. Over the next few days, you'll have the chance to enter to win a digital copy of my first published book, The Gift.

Be sure to stop by all the bloggers to meet some great people, read some wonderful posts, but most of all, to win some great prizes. http://www.inlinkz.com/wpview.php?id=131236

Because my husband plays lacrosse, I had the change to visit London, England. Twice. (I can’t wait to go again.) While I was there, I discovered a wonderful British drink, Pimm’s Classic. Pimm’s is a Gin based beverage spiced up with a secret blend of herbs. Not feeling like a pint of beer, which is totally unlike me, I tried a Pimm’s Classic on a whim. And my-oh-my, is it ever delicious. I was totally hooked. But take my advice, don’t drink a pitcher all by yourself then go for a long walk and a trip on the London Eye. (Nobody’s bladder is that big.)

Pimm’s is a fabulous summer drink for those back yard parties, it is a great drink for sharing with friends while touring London and in my recent book, The Gift, the ladies us a craving for Pimm’s as a ruse to chase their men out of the house so they can indulge themselves a fantasy.

 Make Yourself a Pitcher of Pimm’s Classic

  • Pimm's No.1, 50ml for a glass (1.5 oz) or 200ml for a jug (7 oz)

Method

  1. Mix 1 part Pimm's with 3 parts of lemonade over ice.
