Today's course:-
Chapman cocktail
This is a cocktail because of the presence of angostura sitters in it. It is also an every party drink as clients especially request for it.
Recipes
1/4cup of grenaldine red
1/3cup of fanta
1/3cup of sprite
Drops of angostura bitter
Ice cube

Preparation:-
*put 1/2 filled ice cubes in a cup
*add 1/4grenaldine red
*add 1/3measure of sprite and fanta equally
*add drops of angostura bitter
*ice cube

NOTE
If u are using ribena  or black currant, simply fill to the base of the cup.
This is because the colour must be red not black.
Grenaldine red gives the best glowing red colour.

Angostura sitters can also be replaced with aperito/campari but the standard recipe is angostura bitters. The aroma alone is so inviting and second to none. It must be add in drops until you are satisfied with taste but don't over add because it's very expensive(3500-4500).
Also for events or commercial purpose always use black currant because of the cost implication, ice cube is very important especially for big events and taste because ice helps reduce the quantity of drinks poured into cups thereby giving more profit.
