Her Majesty the Queen's her favourite alcoholic drink is flying off supermarket shelves.
Queen Elizabeth II died aged 96 on September 8. Since then, the nation has been in mourning ahead of her upcoming funeral on Monday, September 19.
Millions of people have been looking for ways to pay their respects to the late monarch. Some have opted to wear black or queue for hours to see her body lying in state, while others have opted for quirkier methods.

Now it seems that many are looking to toast the Queen with her favourite tipple as they sip Her Majesty's favourite cocktail of Dubonnet and gin. A BBC reporter pointed out that shelves in a Waitrose supermarket had completely sold out of the stuff.
BBC's Mark Williamson captioned a snap of an empty shelf, as he wrote: "Dubbonet sold out at Waitrose - sent earlier this evening." Waitrose describe the drink as an 'elegant fortified red wine aperitif from southern France'.
The boozy drink was also sold out on Tesco's website earlier this week as well as in House of Malt. DrinkSupermarket.com has also been wiped of the bottles.
The description of the drink on Drink Supermarket is now sadly outdated, as it reads: "Made by Joseph Dubonnet to combat malaria for the French army, Dubonnet is the chosen drink for our late Queen Elizabeth II. A sweet wine with bitter notes made from a blend of fortified wine, herbs, spices and Quinine. Perfect for Her Majesty, so drink like a royal."
The drink was also enjoyed by the nation at happier times too. Brits also wanted to pay tribute to the Queen during her Platinum Jubilee celebrations in June, when the alcohol sold out originally.
