Hello friends of hive and Amazingdrinks family. Hope you are doing good enjoy some delicious drinks to stay hydrated as the weather keeps warmer.
I made a special drink š¹ today to give myself some refreshing afternoon seeing how warm its beginning to look, and to also share the recipe with you. This cocktail called Chapmanā and I know you will love how delicious it taste especially with the added touch of cucumber š„ and fresh onion stem š
.Chapman is a sweet cocktail š¹ that originated in Nigeria š³š¬ often served at the bars and restaurants and the ingredients to this sweet drink are: Sprite - a lemon š and lime flavored soft drink with a crisp refreshing taste.
Fanta - an orange š flavored soft drink shares a spotlight with Sprite as it is measured 1.1 . These two ingredients are usually the main ingredients to this cocktail.
Grenadine - is a bright red sweet and slightly tart syrup made traditionally from pomegranate. Grenadine gives the chapman drink š„¤ an iconic radish-pink color.
But for a quick chapman cocktail due to how warm the weather was, I decided to use an already made chapman soft drink by Schweppes bottling company which has been in the refrigerator chilling for days now.
And making chapman we must not skip out cucumber š„ as this vegetable gives this drink a note of freshness and adds to the overall signature taste.
However, I decided also to add some slices of of onion stem for that aroma and bit of spice I needed in this drink. You can decide to add lime or lemon š slices if you desire some sour taste in this recipe. I skipped ice cubes due to how chilling the drink is already. Chapman needs to be served cold š„¶
.Here I share the step by step with you.
INGREDIENTS:
1 bottle of chilled chapman
1/2 of a cucumber
Few slices of onion stem
A glass cup for mixing

Step 4.

You can not afford to miss making this drink. Its so delicious and so refreshing. An energy booster if you need some sugar after a long day. Although drinks like this comes handy once in awhile for those who wants to cut down sugar intake, but its also good if we add lime, lemon š or bitters to reduce the sugar quantity that sodas contain.
