The festive season is fast approaching and it would not be a bad idea to make my own drink. The season is obviously going to be a cold one and a cup of Irish cream would be perfect. I had some friends over during the weekend and we played with the left over ingredients in my kitchen and we came up with our version of baileys Irish cream.

Irish cream is a liqueur based on Irish whisky, coffee, cream amongst others. It is perfect for every occasion, and best enjoyed with friends and family.

Having discovered a fond likeness for homemade drinks, I have however found a twist to make the regular traditional Chapman take me to cloud 9.

It is known that the regular Chapman has a 0% alcoholic content. Loving the taste of Campari and Chapman I thought to myself 'why can't I have a glass of goodness?'

I give you my 'glorious Champari.'

One bottle of Fanta (35 cl – 350 ml)

One bottle of Sprite (35 cl – 350 ml)

One to three teaspoons of cocktail bitters (Either Angostura aromatic bitter or Alomo bitters)

One cup of grenadine syrup (zobo syrup will be a nice substitute)

One lemon or lime

One cucumber

Ice cubes

One cup of Orange juice

One-quarter of a cup of Campari

Method
Pour in the Campari in the amount that best suits you. Now you have to add the orange juice, Fanta, sprite, bitters, and the syrup. Shake or stir the entire mixture with a spoon. Next, you can pour the drink into glass cups or a beer mug and add the garnishing fruits (lemon, lime) or the cucumber. A lot of people thinks that a cucumber suits the Chapman the best.

Last but not least, add the ice cubes, and your chapman with Campari is ready to be served with your favorite snacks!
I enjoy my glass of goodness with hot spicy suya.
Yummy!!
