Meghan Markle is known to many as the Duchess of Sussex but, to the people close to her, she is also a known foodie.
Before she became the Duchess of Sussex, Markle was known to be a major certified foodie and avid dinner party host.
From cooking to decorating, to everything in between, she knew how to wow a crowd with her simple and delicious recipes. According to Today, Meghan has always been outspoken about the kinds of foods she loves to eat, as well as the kinds of culinary adventures she has been on throughout her life.
In 2014, she began producing content for her website called "The Tig". Whether it was taking on the role of an “Insider”, sharing in the thrill of walking the streets of Cartagena in South America, or gushing about her favourite sandwich spot in New York City, she filled her website with colourful stories until 2018, just before marrying Prince Harry and becoming the Duchess of Sussex.
In an interview with food and wine magazine Grazia in 2015, Meghan shared her favourite cocktail recipe that she loves to serve the guests, especially during the holidays. This speciality drink is not complicated to make and can be pulled off with a simple list of ingredients, such as almond milk, cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, and bourbon.
Below is the full recipe.
Ingredients
4 cups unsweetened almond milk (you can make your own by blending raw almonds with milk and straining it)
1 tsp of cinnamon
1 tsp cardamom
1 tsp of powdered ginger
½ tsp of clove
6-8 dried dates soaked in water
Your favourite bourbon
Cinnamon sticks for garnish.
Method
Blend all ingredients (except the alcohol) in a powerful blender and then move to a small saucepan.
Heat at a low temperature until heated and then add 4-6 ounces into the pot, depending on your friends' palates.
Pour each drink and garnish with a cinnamon stick.
However, if you want a cold cocktail, shake the blended ingredients hard in a cocktail shaker and serve in glasses, with a cinnamon rim on the glass. Just omit the heating process.
