The family we just can’t get enough of - The Royal Family. Lately they’ve been doing a lot of traveling from Prince Harry and Meghan Markle doing their Royal Africa tour toKate Middleton’s and Prince William’s upcoming trip to Pakistan, it’s safe to say they love to travel. However when it comes the Queen travelling, there’s one thing she won’t travel without - prepare for take off.
In a recent Channel 5 documentary, Secrets Of The Royal Flight, Royal Correspondent, Emily Andrews gives an insight to what it’s like on the Queen’s royal plane and the items that are a must have. Andrews said, ‘She loves afternoon tea, it’s her favourite meal and she only drinks Earl Grey. So if you were the chef on board the Royal place you would deficiently make sure that you had an entire supply of Earl Grey.’
Along with her stacks of tea the Queen allegedly loves egg and cress sandwiches. Emily Andrews said, ‘she particularly likes egg and cress sandwiches cut in particular ways and for supper, she always like to start with smoked salmon.’
Much like Mariah Carey, the Queen has a strong preference one certain type of water. Former Royal Correspondent, Dickie Arbiter said during the documentary, ‘the only thing the Queen requests to have wherever she is, is Malvern water'.
If you're expecting a visit from HRH any time soon make sure you've got all the basics covered: Earl Grey tea, egg and cress sandwiches, and Malvern water (sparking vs still is to unconfirmed).
