THE GRUMPY CUP

In our role as the Official Sommelier of Trinity Repertory Company we are reviving our very own “Grumpy Cup” cocktail to pair with theater’s world premier of Arnie Louis and Bob. The drink is a riff on the classic British “Pimm’s Cup” cocktail with the addition of Crabbie’s alcoholic ginger beer and St. Germain elderflower liqueur. Be sure to catch a performance of the show to see why we think the Grumpy Cup is the appropriate cocktail pairing.

The Grumpy Cup drink idea is a Bottles (a Rhode Island liquor store) cocktail invention, and a twist on a classic Pimm’s Cup cocktail. The ingredients include Pimm’s, St. Germain and Crabbie’s (alcoholic!) Ginger Beer.
