Eating and Drinking Super Bowl Style
We are only days away from game time, and it’s time to make sure your game plan is ready for the big day. The most important part of your Super Bowl party is the food and drinks you provide, and here at Gunaxin we want to make sure that you have all the right things on your table. We’ve scoured the internet for five of the tastiest football foods and paired them with the perfect cocktails from our friends at Diageo to make sure your party is a hit. Bring one of these combinations out each quarter and no one will care about the score of the game, you will be the big winner on Sunday.
