It’s no secret that the Queen has a sweet tooth, and she’s got her favourite boozy tipples, too! Behind palace doors, Her Majesty enjoys the finest foods cooked up by royal chefs and, every now and then, we get to try them too.

So, what’s better than the Queen’s boozy Christmas pudding? An alcohol-soaked chocolate mousse - ooh, don’t mind if we do… According to Darren McGrady - the Queen’s personal chef in the 1990s - dark chocolate and a warming tot of Drambuie liqueur are her favourite ingredients.
