How to Make Vimto Drink

Method 1 Method 1 of 2: Creating a Classic Vimto Drink
  1. 1 Add 4 cups of water into a pitcher.
  2. 2 Add 3/4 cup of Vimto cordial syrup into the pitcher.
    • You can buy Vimto at your local food market (usually sold in a can version) or online.
  3. 3 Add more sugar 1 tablespoon at a time as desired and stir until all sugar is dissolved.
  4. 4 Pour the mixture into a serving of 2 cups.
  5. 5 Add ice cubes if desired, depending on how much the ice dilutes the drink.
    • If the concentrate is still cold, ice might not be necessary.
  6. 6 Add berries to the juice of Vimto in each serving.
    • The recommended number is 6 berries (3 blueberries and 3 red raspberries)
  7. 7 Finish with a garnish to your drink. A sprig of fresh mint leaves, for example, traditionally goes well with Vimto. The garnish you choose should be suitable for your drink.
    • For extra mint flavor, bruise the leaves first.
    • A thin-sliced lemon on the edge of the glass is also the perfect complementary garnish.
  8. 8 Now you are ready to drink your Vimto drink.
    • Decorate the glass with a tiny umbrella (optional), and add a straw.
Method 2 Method 2 of 2: Making a Vimto Mojito
  1. 1 Add a few spearmint mint leaves into a glass cup serving.
    • Insert around 5-6 mint leaves.
  2. 2 Cut one lime in half and press it onto a lime press over the cup. Twist the lime over the press to get as much juice out as possible.
    • If you don't have a lime press, squeeze the lime to get most of the juice out.
  3. 3 Add 2 tablespoons of Vimto cordial syrup into the glass cup serving.
  4. 4 Add ice cubes as desired into the cup.
  5. 5 Add about 250ml of soda water into the cup.
    • Any brand of soda water is suitable for this recipe as it depends on your taste or preference.
    • You can buy soda water at your local grocery store or online.
