Brandy and Babycham. Whatever happened to that? And for a change: whisky and Lucozade! Your drink has more style than those.
Sweet Martini and Lemonade sounds sophisticated and retro. Go for it, you may be the first in a generation and start a new trend.
And whatever happened to the other numbers of Pimm's? There used to be several, each number had a different spirit base.
And as for that liqueur which had a coffee bean put in the glass, whereupon you set fire to it....Sambuca, wasn't it?

Hottiedoc, I had to get a Canadian to translate 'pickle' ! You mean what we call a 'gherkin' or 'pickled cucumber' . To us 'pickle' covers all kinds of pickled (preserved in vinegar) vegetable, mixture of vegetables, chutney etc.
But no, we haven't got round to drinking whisky followed by the 'juice' from a bottle of pickled cucumbers. Does your 'pickle' have dill in it? That would certainly add some flavour.
