Queen Elizabeth II throws back four alcoholic beverages a day, making her a heavy drinker by government standards.
She never changes up her alcohol intake and her drink choice is just as classy as you'd expect.
According to The Independent, Her Majesty drinks a gin and Dubonnet with lemon andice before lunch, a wine with lunch, and a dry martini and glass of champagne at night.
While she might indulge in four cocktails a day, she's always doing it on a full stomach.
The first thing she eats when she wakes up is tea and biscuits, and washes that down with some fruit and cereal. The Queen prefers Special K over any other cereal.
As the Queen celebrates her 60 years as head of state, The Independent has revealed facts about Her Majesty.
She is the 257th richest person in the UK and is worth about £300m ($529m).
It was also revealed the Queen can be a bit of a hothead.
In 1954 during a visit to Australia, the Queen had an argument with her husband Prince Philip and writer Robert Hardman said she was filmed "hurling shoes, threats and sporting equipment, and venting the sort of regal fury that, in another age, would have cost someone their head".
She later apologised for the interlude and said "as you know, it happens in every marriage".
