According to the official website, Drambuie is made by blending Scotch whisky with honey and a secret blend of spices. It has a history going back centuries, when the exiled English royal "Bonnie Prince Charlie" gave his secret recipe for Drambuie to the Scottish clan who helped him escape capture. The name comes from the Scottish phrase "an dram buidheach," which means "the drink that satisfies."
The former chef to the Royal Family Darren McGrady (via Daily Mail), shares that he combined the favorites of Queen Elizabeth, dark chocolate and Drambuie, into a rich mousse for a dessert that really satisfies! McGrady said his "Queen's Favourite Drambuie Chocolate Mousse" recipe starts with melted, quality dark chocolate that's blended with strong coffee, egg yolks, and a pour of Drambuie. Whipped cream and whipped egg whites are folded in, and then the mousse is chilled until firm.
McGrady also told the Daily Meal that when the Royal Family went to their getaway estate, Balmoral Castle in Scotland, he always prepared lots of Drambuie chocolate mousse: Some in a silver dish to serve inside, and some in plastic dishes for times went the Queen wanted to go "barbequing to the hills."
