Snow Cone Pimms Cup Recipes

Steps:

• Put the coffee, sugar and vanilla extract in a medium bowl and whisk until the sugar has completely dissolved. Pour the mixture into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, cover with plastic wrap and freeze until completely solid, at least 6 hours and up to overnight.
• When ready to serve, use a metal fork to scrape the frozen coffee mixture into fine shavings. Scoop the shavings into small serving bowls or snow cone cups. Serve frozen.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, stir together the sugar and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring, until the sugar is fully dissolved. Remove the pan from the heat and mix in the lemon juice. Allow the mixture to cool completely.
• Prepare cones or bowls of shaved ice and pour about 1/4 cup of the syrup on top of each.

Steps:

• Fill 4 highball glasses with crushed ice. Add 1 cucumber slice, 1 lemon slice and 2 strawberry halves to each glass.
• Add the Pimm's, sparkling lemonade and the remaining cucumbers, lemons and strawberries to a pitcher. Add the basil. Stir until combined, then pour evenly amongst the glasses. Top each with a sprig of basil.
