King Charles has launched alcohol-infused Christmas puddings at his Sandringham estate shop in Norfolk, drawing inspiration from the late Queen's treasured family recipe.
The larger puddings, priced at £19.99, feature a rich blend of raisins, sultanas, mixed peel, breadcrumbs, sherry and brandy. A smaller option is available for £6.99.
The estate shop describes the festive treat as "Perfect for family gatherings or a solo treat, our Christmas pudding is made to a classic recipe with time to mature, allowing sumptuous flavours to develop fully."
The Sandringham puddings differ from Queen Elizabeth II's original recipe, which incorporated beer and dark rum alongside the other ingredients.
