Queen Elizabeth II Enjoys Not One, But FOUR Alcoholic Drinks Every Single Day

女王一天要喝4杯酒?!

For Queen Elizabeth II, it’s always five o’clock somewhere. Her Majesty already gets away with celebrating two birthdays every when she’s not meeting foreign dignitaries or negotiating with the British Parliament, the Queen could be found sipping one of her daily boozy beverages.

對於英國女王伊麗莎白二世來說,在任何地方都可以喝下午茶。她現在已經告別了每年過兩次生日的時代。但是,當她不用會見國外高官以及王公大臣時,女王總會小酌一杯。

In fact, former royal chef Darren McGrady just dished on Queen Elizabeth’s drinking habits. What he revealed might surprise you.

實際上,聽過前皇家御用廚師達倫·麥克格雷迪公開的女王的日常飲酒慣例,你也許會大吃一驚。

According to McGrady, Queen Elizabeth starts her day with a pre-lunch gin and Dubonnet cocktail, garnished with a slice of lemon and plenty of ice.

麥克格雷迪透露,伊麗莎白女王在午餐前會喝杜松子酒以及杜本內雞尾酒,外加一片檸檬和大量冰塊。

Business Insider speculates that she drinks Gordon’s Gin, which holds an official royal warrant: a trademark awarded to companies who provide goods or services to the royal family for more than five years.

而據網站Business Insider猜測,女王喝的是戈登牌杜松子酒。這個牌子經過皇家授權,已經爲皇室提供食品和服務已經有五年多了。

You can find the queen’s coat of arms displayed on the selected businesses’ packaging and promotional materials,PopSugar reports.

PopSugar報道則稱,戈登的包裝和宣傳材料上都印着女王的徽章。

For lunch, the Queen matches a simple meal of vegetables and fish with a glass of wine and a piece of chocolate, McGrady told The Telegraph. A cousin claims that she may also sip a dry gin martini should the mood strike her.

麥克格雷迪在接受The Telegraph採訪時說,女王的午餐相當簡單,只是一些蔬菜和魚類,以及巧克力。一位皇室成員透露,如果來了興致,女王還會小酌幾口乾型馬提尼酒。

Her Majesty’s afternoon tea has a tamer vibe; she usually selects a simple herbal drink and a dessert, such as pie or chocolate biscuit cake. Finally, the Queen washes down her light dinner with a sophisticated glass of champagne before heading off to bed.

伊麗莎白的下午茶則比較溫和,通常是一杯香草酒以及諸如巧克力餅乾蛋糕一類的甜點。一天終了,女王會在晚飯時來一杯香檳,隨後就寢。

If you’ve been counting, that adds up to four alcoholic beverages in one day.

算一算,女王一天要喝4杯酒。

At six units of alcohol in total, the Independentpoints out that the 91-year-old is technically considered a binge drinker by UK law.

這相當於6個單位的酒精量,獨立報指出,根據英國法律規定,嚴格意義上來說,這個91歲的老人應該算是一個酗酒者了。

But surprisingly, that’s notwhy someone called the police on Queen Elizabeth—yet!

然而令人驚訝的是,至今還沒有人給警察打電話舉報伊麗莎白女王!
