Quick Notes On Ingredients For Making A Fruity Chapman

Here’s a quick note on each of the ingredients for making a fruity chapman are as follows:

GRENADINE SYRUP: It gives the chapman its classic red colour and it can be gotten easily at your local stores or supermarket.

AGOSTURA BITTERS: This gives the chapman its unique taste when it comes together with the other ingredients. For people who don’t take alcohol this can be left out and replaced with a squeeze of lemon or lime juice.

CONCENTRATED BLACKCURRANT: It adds to the red colour and gives the drink a sweetened taste.

FANTA AND SPRITE: This also adds to the sweetness of the cocktail drink.

LEMON AND ORANGE: They can be squeezed into the cocktail mixture or sliced into the cocktail when it has been served to make it look fruity.

ICE CUBES: Using ice cubes is suggested because if water is used it adds more water into the cocktail drink as it defrozes thereby making the drink flat before it is been finished.
