Kate Middleton's favorite drink that Prince William makes for her at night

Those who fancy a nightcap to unwind after ticking off their daily tasks might have a favourite tipple, and it seems Princess Kate is no different.

After her three little ones - Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis - are all snuggled in bed, the future Queen reportedly savours a specific drink , with Prince William playing bartender. The Royal couple has navigated some tough waters recently, as Kate underwent chemotherapy treatment, stepping back from her Royal duties and staying out of the spotlight.

While Prince William carried on with his Royal responsibilities, he also juggled caring for his wife and their young brood. Insiders claim Kate was deeply moved and "genuinely touched" by William's dedication and cheerful support.

Even the simple act of preparing her an evening beverage is said to be a testament to the strength of their relationship, which has been going strong since they first crossed paths in 2001 as university students at St. Andrews, more than two decades ago.

The Duchess of Cambridge's go-to drink is a classic favourite among Brits, making her a relatable figure when it comes to unwinding after a long day - a gin and tonic. According to a palace insider, as reported by Edinburgh Live, "William will bring Kate a gin and tonic. They look after each other but in different ways."

The Royal couple has previously poked fun at their shared household responsibilities, joking about who would cook dinner during a Radio 1 appearance. Kate playfully asked, "You're looking at me? " before revealing she would likely whip up a teriyaki salmon or curry for their family, depending on their schedule.
