The Apostles celebrated the Communion, the Divine Liturgy, St. Mark the Evangelist one of the 70 that Christ sent into the world founded the Coptic Orthodox Church. So you're right that they didn't get it wrong as we drink the Holy Blood and eat the Holy Body of our Lord Jesus Christ.
What they did —
“For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until He comes”. I Cor 11:26
Exactly what the Lord asked them to do —
“Do this in remembrance of Me”. Luke 22
We still do this, like I said the Coptic Church was founded by St. Mark himself it hasn't changed. Take eat of this bread, this is My Body. We believe that this truly is His Body.
