Hey everyone, how's it going?
I'm Gunnarolla and it's a big day
because I've partnered with 7UP
to throw a travel themed party.
I'm gonna teach you how to make three different dips
based on three of my favorite travel destinations,
Cairo, Tokyo and Los Angeles,
and then we're gonna make a cocktail
that fuses together all of these flavors,
and then I'm gonna invite my friends over.
We're gonna watch some videos
and dream of all the places we can go.
Super excited, let's go!
So, we're gonna start with the Wayfarer Cocktail,
this is the perfect drink to make
if you feel like traveling the world
but can't afford to leave your kitchen.
So let's start with Umeshu,
this is a traditional Japanese plum wine.
Next our tribute to Cairo,
got fresh cane juice over here.
You can find stands all over Cairo,
in markets, on the streets,
this is the perfect drink to refresh yourself.
Some lime juice
and mezcal.
Now we are ready for some fun!
Nobody likes a hot cocktail,
and I'm gonna mix it up a little,
(rattling)
until it's nice and cool.
Look at this cocktail
and for a little refreshing touch
we're gonna add some 7UP.
Everywhere I've been in the world
I've actually been able to find this,
so it's a very international drink.
And our last ingredient: a nod to Los Angeles,
a Saladito or Mexican spiced plum candy.
A Gunnarolla original,
three different cultures in one drink!
That's fresh!
Now it's time to move on to our three dips
inspired by three very different cities.
We're gonna start off with Cairo,
one of my favorite travel destinations.
It's got the friendliest people
and the best food anywhere you turn.
So we'll start with beets,
we're gonna add some tahini,
and lemon juice, and lemon zest,
and of course, garlic.
Look at that color
and we'll give it a quick taste.
Ah that's amazing!
Next dip, for Tokyo.
I was not a big fan of eggplants
until I went to Japan, so for our Tokyo dip
we're gonna make a roasted eggplant red miso.
We've got ingredients that you'll find in Japanese food,
we've got soy sauce, rice wine, sesame oil,
garlic and ginger, so let's add all those.
And what's gonna make it a Tokyo dip is our red miso,
so let's spoon that in and mix it all together.
You can really smell the sesame, love that.
Let's give it a quick taste.
Hmm, it's like taking a trip to Tokyo
without the hefty price tag.
Let's move onto our last dip, inspired by Los Angeles.
We've got all American spinach and artichoke dip,
with Dungeness crab, super West Coast.
So, first thing we're gonna do
is mix our heavy cream with our cream cheese,
I want to get this nice and smooth.
Then we can add our spinach and artichoke,
and all of our other ingredients.
We've got Parmesan cheese, got garlic,
onion, and Dungeness crab.
Best crab is on the West Coast.
So let's mix that all together.
Beautiful, so you can serve that cold,
or if you really want to impress your guests
you can heat it up.
So we got three different dips
inspired by three different cities,
Cairo, Tokyo and Los Angeles,
it's an international spread
without any of the jet lag.
My friends are about to arrive though,
so I gotta go prepare.
(cool jazzy salsa)
(happy friendship music)
(laughs)
Oh my God, this was too fun!
I love to travel and be able to share these amazing dips
and cocktails with my incredible friends
has been amazing, thank you so much for watching.
Bye for ten!
(upbeat music)
