The famous English liqueur brand Pimm’s makes a delicious blackberry spirit you can’t get in Canada, so we recreated the flavour with this quick homemade syrup. A true spritz needs bitters and bubbles: we added some Pimm’s No. 1—which is sold here—for the bitters, and topped it with Prosecco. It’s the perfect reminder summer isn’t over…yet.
