Sherry, against all odds, has suddenly become a super-cool cocktail ingredient, as something like a more versatile (and often lower-alcohol) cousin to the beefier vermouth. But it doesn't just work as a kind of fortified wine placeholder, either—its versatile flavor, from dry Manzanillas to the syrupy Pedro Ximenez, lets it go places where a vermouth would simply be too much. Like, for instance, in this Sherry Pimm's Cup, a twist on the cucumbery British classic. Pip pip!
