Oscar’s Steakhouse at the Plaza Hotel and Casino has added Queen Elizabeth’s favorite cocktail to its menu, paying tribute to the late monarch.
The beverage is called “Queen Elizabeth II” and consists of one part gin and two parts Dubonnet, a wine-based French aperitif, with a half lemon wheel and ice.
“We wanted to pay tribute to the late Queen Elizabeth II in our own way and share with our guests something that she was known to enjoy,” said Jonathan Jossel, CEO of the Plaza Hotel and Casino.
This cocktail was in vogue in Britain during the 1920s and was particularly loved by the Queen Mother, Queen Elizabeth, whose preference for the beverage influenced Her Majesty’s palate.
