- Batchability 5/5 (benefits from maceration - pre-batching spirit/wine/fruit allows flavors to meld into Super-Cup base), Throughput Fast (if fruit pre-batched in liquid for ladle service or pre-set in glass), Survivability 4/5 (complex wine base and fruit sugars make drink robust against dilution - evolves pleasantly rather than dying). Pimm's Cup operational definition.
