- Hi guys, Merry Easter.
I hope you can still have a nice weekend
given the circumstances.
I wonder if the Easter Bunny is social distancing.
So I guess he's just gonna lay his eggs
and throw them through our windows.
(glass crashing) I hope so.
Lockdown update for me.
My quiff is getting too much verticality.
And I'm almost at the stage of where it looks like
I've got a dog on my head.
So I need to sort this out sometime soon.
Today I'm a little bit bored.
I've been seeing a lot of bored people online
who are dying their hair or doing some beautiful art
or writing a sonata.
But I thought, Philly, what do I want to do
to fulfill myself emotionally.
I wanted to follow a TikTok trend
(honk) because I'm still down
(crickets chirping)
with stuff.
So today, I'm gonna making the viral
whipped TikTok dalgona coffee Easter edition.
I've seen this frickin' whipped TikTok coffee
on every single platform I look at.
Open Instagram, there it is.
Open YouTube, there it is.
Talk to my mum, there it is.
So I was like I need to try this, I need to do it,
I need to see what the fuss is about.
I want to give it a review.
You basically whip coffee with sugar so much
that it almost goes solid and then you just
plonk it on top of some milk and have a drink.
That seems slightly boring to me,
so I want to Eastify it.
I wanna add more sugar.
I wanna add more color.
I wanna make it so Easter Bunny and Jesus
would wanna cheers it.
As a coffee fan I sometimes feel left out
in snobby coffee conversations
when people are like, "Oh you can only drink
"Canadian cold brew coffee straight from the mooses teats."
And I just like things simple with my Nescafe original.
This is not a spon, it's just what I drink.
I've drank it since I was 10 years old,
which I would not recommend giving to your children.
Fight me with your tiny coffee cup.
So I'll just smash them out of your hands.
Breathe, relax.
There is nothing like ripping over the silver foil
and opening a Nescafe original and having a sniff.
It's like a pure nosegasm.
That's been around a while, so it's less.
This recipe, it uses my fave.
So it's going to be a winner, guys.
So, you'll need coffee, a tablespoon,
which I actually found a tablespoon measurement,
so apparently it's that big.
Water, ooh, I sniffed it (laughs).
Mine's slightly warm because I heard that makes it better.
Milk, I've got normal milk, but also,
pastel yellow banana milk.
I've got enough sugar, ooh that's satisfying to slap,
(smacking)
to keep me happy for an hour.
I've got some fun Easter colored sprinkles.
Food colorings to get some Easter colors on the go.
Some marshmallow Peeps which I found in a distant cupboard
and somehow they are still in date.
I've got this white chocolate sauce
that I had sitting around from another baking experiment
so I figured this might be good.
Or I could just squeeze it into my mouth
when the cameras off.
I wanted some mini marshmallows.
I thought this said 100 grams
and I figured it was a little bit pricey
because of the apocalypse, but (laughs)
this is what turned up.
This is a kilo of marshmallows.
I could literally use this as a pillow.
(sad music)
I've also got some decaf coffee
'cause if you're a bit of a caffeine lightweight
like me, two tablespoons of coffee
is like four cups of coffee.
So I've got some decaf to mix in.
And some ice cubes which are melting,
ooh, big brain time.
I'm gonna put these back in the freezer.
Someone shamed me after wearing these shorts
on my Insta stories.
Look, Deborah, we're in lockdown.
I'm not at fashion week.
I've also got some mini eggs which I've already opened,
surprise, surprise.
And then the Internet highly recommended
using an electric whisk.
Or if you wanna work out, you wanna destroy your arms,
or you're generally buff, go with a standard whisk.
That is a lot of ingredients for a famous
three ingredient coffee.
I know I'm being a bit extra,
but I think it's gonna be worth it
for the sake of the Easter Bunny.
(bang)
So.
Christ, sorry.
Can't say Christ.
Jesus, the Easter, right.
Put my bowl out for the lads.
So the first edition is gonna be
a chocolate and banana pastel Easter extravaganza.
Because it's an extravaganza we're gonna be using
the fancy cup and also the banana milk.
I know people don't technically nom down on bananas
at Easter but the color is too good to be true.
It looks like we blended a load of chicks together.
Right, to make the coffee foam
we're gonna do two tablespoons of coffee,
two tablespoons of sugar, that's so much sugar (laughs).
I guess this is what a Starbucks is like
if you just break it down.
Waters.
And then because it's Easter, I'm gonna put
some chocolate powder in as well,
just to give it a chocolate twang.
I'm also gonna put green food coloring in
because brown, it's not an Easter color.
I was thinking yellow, but I don't think
that's gonna change the brown.
So I'm gonna try and do pastel green.
There's three greens, a blue-green,
and grass green, or yellow green.
I'm gonna go with yellow green because it's the lightest.
Also the source of many arguments.
Is this yellow or green?
Fight.
I've not read the instructions
so I'm just gonna put loads in.
Right, let's get whisking.
The instructions were to just keep frothing it
and frothing it and frothing it
until there's nothing else but froth.
You're in a sea of froth.
(mixer whirring)
Ooh.
Ooh, that is not a pastel green (laughs).
Do you know they say some animals
can see more colors than humans?
I think I just made one of those colors.
This looks so gross.
(blender whirring)
Ooh, it's getting all foamy.
All right, it's been about three minutes
and it's starting to foam but it's looking
nothing like I imagined in my head (laughs).
I want it to be a light pastel green,
but maybe with more and more air it's gonna become
lighter and lighter.
(blender whirring)
Oh, shiester.
Oh God, I'm just rearranging my whisk
and I got green goo all over my MacBook.
Nooooo.
It looks like a crocodile sneezed on it.
I thought this video would be without chaos
and I've already ruined my laptop.
I'm gonna add some grass green
and see if that makes it any better.
(blender whirring)
that's better, it's looking good.
These ice cubes are so cute.
It kind of hurts, it's actually painful.
Right, so plunk a couple of ice cubes in.
Get your banana milk.
If you don't have banana milk
you can just put some yellow food dye into normal milk
because it'll make it the same color.
Fill your glass with your banana milk
and then we're going blob on the TikTok slime (laughs).
Yes, it's happening.
Just try and get as much as you can out of the bowl.
This is super satisfying.
It is nearly full to the brim.
Now I think I'm going to decorate it
with pastel yellow sprinkles.
That looks actually professional.
And then top it off with a couple of Peeps.
This one looks scared, this one looks drunk,
this one looks suspicious, these guys are my friends.
Place your Peeps, no, oh my God!
I was just placing the Peeps on it (laughs)
and it's fully overflown.
I didn't think Peeps had this much mass.
What is happening.
I guess it looks more Instagram-able now
with it dripping down the side.
Those peeps are happily nestled in there though.
They're having a great time.
This is like a spa.
I don't have any straws, save the whales.
I'm just gonna go for it.
Uh, this is like some kind of horrible challenge
I'm sorry if this mess and chaos is upsetting you.
All right I'm gonna have a Peep.
(crunch)
The Peep and the coffee, heavenly.
(romantic music)
I don't care if my hands are covered in slime.
That banana coffee combo is incredible.
The sweetness of the banana and the bitterness
of the coffee are swirling around on my tongue,
in my tongue, on my tongue, and is amazing
Mmm, great.
- [Announcer] A few moments later.
- All right, for the next one
I'm gonna try and learn from my mistakes.
I don't think I whipped that enough.
I want to be able to turn it upside down
and it doesn't go anywhere.
So I think the solution for that is a smaller bowl
so we can get more air in it
without it spreading all over the bottom.
Secondly, I filled the cup too much.
That's easily remedied.
And thirdly, it looked a bit crap.
So I'm gonna be more artisanal, anal, artisanal.
I'm just gonna do it better.
All right the next one is red velvet strawberry special.
There's gonna be alcohol involved but you can make your own
with red velvet ice cream or red velvet flavoring
of some kind.
Just be creative.
Let's dip our whisk into this.
(horn blowing)
Are you having a laugh?
Why was there water in that bowl?
I'm literally gonna yeet myself through the window
in a second.
Look at the letter T is just continually typing
onto the screen now.
I feel like the universe is not my friend today.
(speaks in foreign language)
Maybe I'll do the water now.
Just spice it up a bit.
No, because now my spoon is wet
and I gotta dip it in the sugar.
That's why I didn't do the water first.
I'm gonna do a very heap sugar
because it's still quite bitter.
And two, let's get some pink in there.
That'll do.
I'm nervous.
(blender whirring)
Woo!
Oh great, it looks like blood.
It is whipping up so much easier in this little bowl
but the color is grotesque.
I'm gonna put some more pink in.
(blender whirring)
That is thick.
This is a thing of beauty.
The color is even like a spring pig.
I'm so pleased with that.
Got a less impressive glass this time
'cause I only have one special glass.
All right, time to get lit (laughs).
'Cause of the trauma of last time
I'm gonna start things off with some red velvet Bailey's.
Ooh, it matches!
Guys, if any two colors ever matched more than them.
I'm not gonna waste it so I'm not gonna make
the entire thing Bailey's.
You do as you want at home.
I'm gonna add some milk and see how pink it goes?
Ooh, that is actually quite a nice pastel pink.
I'm just putting a couple of drops of pink in
just to fully pink out.
Let's get scooping.
I should just make a whole Instagram
of me playing with this thick gloopy coffee.
It's ike visual ASMR.
I don't want to lose too much air from it
so I'm just gonna blob is much as I can.
It won't even come off my spoon.
Go on.
(gasps)
(gentle music)
look at that erect peak.
I'm gonna get my thousand kilos of marshmallows
and do a beautiful aesthetic, well-considered design.
I'm going for a two pinks, two whites pattern
around the edge.
The marshmallows are just hanging out on there.
They could be there all week.
Now I'm gonna attempt to put some mini eggs on.
I'm scared they're gonna sink.
(gasps)
It's working!
Yes, it's like the drink is an Easter nest.
And I'm gonna top it off with a white chocolate drizzle.
And some sprinkles.
Do you think a Peep would be too much now?
Yep, Phil learn your lessons from last time.
No Peeps, no.
Okay, it's done.
(upbeat music)
Cheers.
Mmm, whoa.
The coffee is so thick I can't even get the milk
to come through.
I'm gonna have to spoon it.
This is like 20 times creamier than ice cream.
It's such an insane texture.
It's like drinking a coffee cloud.
The red velvet milk, the creamy coffee,
and a mouthful of mini egg,
is probably one of the best things I've eaten this year.
I'm gonna say one thing, this is very hard to drink.
I think it's more of a spoon scenario.
I don't want to mix it all together
because that,
(sad music)
all right I just lost my spoon.
(laughs)
My spoon is no more.
Okay, full review.
Taste, no matter what you do,
it's just coffee, sugar, and milk.
So that's what it tastes like.
It taste like a nice coffee.
But with all the Easter additions
I think that elevates it.
So on its own I reckon
I probably give it a three out of five.
But with all my special Easter flavors
I'd probably give the banana one a four
and this one a five.
Texture is fun, but like I said
it is hard to drink.
You can either eat it with the spoon
but then you're just eating all the coffee
and then you gotta drink some milk.
Or mix it all together but then what's the point
because that's just a latte
and you've lost all your foaminess.
Or I think sipping through the foam
so you get a bit of both in your mouth
with any added little bits on top.
That is the winner.
My overall opinion, would I bother to make this
over a standard coffee or an iced coffee?
Probably not every day, especially if I didn't
have an electric whisk because some people
are whisking this for like three hours.
As an activity or treat I would definitely say yeah,
give it a go.
Other things I think you could do
is do it with heaps more chocolate powder
to make it really chocolatey.
Or if you're feeling Japanese
you could try some macha powder
and make a green tea version.
I think that would be amazing.
And probably match this color a bit more as well.
Thanks for coming with me on this sticky adventure.
I hope you've had a good time.
Let me know in the comments any things
that you've tried at home during lockdown.
Maybe I'll give them a go in a future video.
Definitely stuff your face with chocolate this weekend.
I think we've all deserved it
and I will see you guys very soon.
Goodbye.
