Tennis inspired party drinks and snacks

Pimm's – the classic Wimbledon cocktail

It goes without saying that Pimm’s is the signature British summer drink. It’s fruity, refreshing-tasting, full of tradition and it’s oh-so British.

The Vodka Martini

A pairing smoother than the lawn on Center Court! The Vodka Martini embodies the timeless elegance and refinement that resonates with the elevated atmosphere of tennis. Cîroc adds a touch of luxury to your Wimbledon gathering while paying homage to the refined traditions associated with the tournament.

Top tip: for a ‘match’ made in heaven (yes, that’s a tennis pun), the citrusy notes of this signature cocktail will go perfectly with other sophisticated flavors including smoked salmon and fluffy blinis.

Bramble

Blackberries grow wild in the summer, and for many, the sweet fruit is evocative of lazy, hazy summer days – be it eaten from the branch or made into a jam.

Make a bramble with Crown Royal Blackberry, perfect for a riff of the summery drink. A well-balanced mix of whisky, lemon juice, sugar syrup, and blackberry flavors, as a great tip, this is a perfect afternoon cocktail to serve alongside sweet treats and sandwiches.

Paloma

For flavors with a bit more kick, try a classic Paloma. It’s the right blend between tart and a treat.

Honey Melon Fizz

Combine CÎROC Honey Melon, lemonade and club soda in a highball glass filled with ice. Add a splash of cranberry juice. Stir and garnish with mint & a lemon wheel.

Snacks

All these crisp, summer cocktails go perfectly with dishes primed for the sunshine and a lazy afternoon watching people work up a sweat.

Strawberries and Cream – no need to overcomplicate it, it’s a tennis-watching staple for a reason! Serve plump strawberries with whipped cream or a dollop of clotted cream.

Sandwiches and light snacks are perfect for the occasion. Light, moreish, and easy to whip up. Stick with some of the refined classics, including  smoked fish, quiches, cheese platters, charcuterie and scones for a perfect spread.
