Prince William might be the future king - but his choice of hot drink is surprisingly down to earth, according to an expert. With three young children running around in the mornings before school, William and Kate certainly have a busy start to their day. And the Prince will reach for a cup of something strong and no-nonsense to keep him going, it has been revealed.

Arthur Gautier of Nio Teas, a premium brand that specialises in Japanese green teas, told Luxurious magazine: "Each royal has their go-to favourite. Tea has played a huge role in the royal family ever since Queen Victoria popularised it in the 19th century." Arthur went on to suggest that William will reach for a cup of English Breakfast tea to kick-start his day.

"I imagine that he starts the day with a hearty mug of English Breakfast while prepping for royal duties (or chasing after the kids!)" he told the publication, noting that it's the tea of choice for someone who needs energy and focus. In contrast, it's thought that his wife Princess Kate likes her tea with a touch of sweetness - Earl Grey with honey to be exact. Back in 2022, William lifted the lid on what he eats and drinks on an average day, writing on a nutrition sheet that he starts the morning with two eggs and wholemeal toast with butter.

He enjoys his breakfast along with a glass of apple juice and a cup of tea with milk and sugar - but admitted he was 'trying to cut down on the sugar.' William also revealed he doesn't drink coffee, but said he ha.
