But the bar offers only £6.50 gin and tonics made using produce grown on his ­Norfolk estate.

Guests can opt for raspberry and apple flavour or “Celebration Gin” — both served in a glass branded with the estate’s name.

The first, said to be “full-bodied” in a notice on the bar, is made by steeping the fruit in distilled spirit.

It adds: “This gin boasts the perfect balance of Norfolk apples and juicy raspberries.”

The second, based on Sharon fruit, is made using ingredients from Sandringham’s walled garden.

It has in it myrtle grown from a cutting from the wedding bouquet at King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra’s marriage in 1863.

It is said to have “zesty citrus and delicate floral notes”.

Other products in the estate shop include £6.99 Raspberry and Gin Preserve and £14.99 gin­flavoured chocolates

Earlier this year Charles, who is recovering from cancer, served up a new range of burgers at the 20,000-acre estate’s posh restaurant, while another pop-up stall sold homemade ice-cream.
