With the Platinum jubilee planning in full swing, we’ve given you ideas for a right royal knees up; plus a little round up of suggestions of food fit for a queen. So to round things off nicely, we’re offering up the perfect recipe to make your Jubilee celebrations go with a bang! Bathtub Gin Jubilee Fizz!
Apparently Her Majesty the Queen is partial to a Dubonnet cocktail (which was The Queen Mother’s favourite tipple). And rumour has it, our beloved monarch is also a fan of gin — and sparkling wine.
So we’ve upped the ante to bring a gorgeous combination of the two!
And not only that, it also includes Her Majesty’s favourite marmalade.
