During May Day this year, the first Sinan Coffee Life Festival ushered in a number of boutique coffee brands, among which there is an interesting topic on Weibo: Shanghainese use soy sauce to make coffee.

As we all know, spicy soy sauce is a major specialty of Shanghai, but using soy sauce to make coffee is very.

The novel and fun combination of "making coffee with soy sauce" is really wonderful.

According to reports, the idea of making coffee with soy sauce comes from the coffee brand Shanghai Shitengjia. Soy sauce latte is made of coffee and soy sauce and is one of the drinks' characteristics.

However, after some understanding, we learned that the soy sauce in the original "soy sauce + latte" combination is not the soy sauce we eat every day, but the special soy sauce produced after many attempts.

In fact, "soy sauce latte" sounds a little bit undrinkable, very much like "dark food", but it is not very bad in the taste, on the contrary, it is an unexpected surprise, with both the salty and wet sea salt and the sweetness of caramel. a very interesting coffee.

In addition to soy sauce Yee lattes, the coffee brand also offers a number of "strange" coffee drinks, such as Japanese-style curry lattes, red pepper gold ginger lattes and so on.

In fact, with the development of market demand, there are a lot of creative special coffee in the coffee field, and the creativity of coffee is getting bolder and bolder.

For example, the slightly tipsy Maotai coffee of Shanghai Yingji Coffee, this Maotai coffee is made from Maotai Prince Liquor. Maotai Prince Liquor is mixed with coffee because the coffee taste is the best. The strong aroma of the wine will mask the original flavor of the coffee.

OPS Coffee, which is famous for its creative coffee in Shanghai, OPS makes the coffee tea and cocktail, adding wine, fruit juice, fruit and syrup to the coffee, thus creating a very novel coffee taste.

The workshop next door in Guangzhou is also very good at using different ingredients to create flavor coffee, such as "Curry Mandarin Duck" and "sausage ice coffee". Previously, the workshop next door was also selected by Ali for its unique creative coffee. It was on the "Taobao creation Festival" in 2019. According to statistics, the workshop next door sold more than 6000 cups of coffee in 14 days.

For example, Chengdu YECLIP COFFEE's "Chuanbei Coffee" and "Hot Coffee Coffee", in which Chuanbei Coffee is extracted by grinding Fritillaria from Jiuzhaigou, Sichuan Province, together with coffee, and adding peppermint element; hot curry coffee is the representative element of Sichuan chili into the coffee, while using bamboo element as a container to select special coffee beans, low temperature and slow extraction.

Among the categories in the coffee field this year, the momentum of creative special coffee is still very strong, and many new cafes have launched creative special coffee as a special drink in the store at the time of opening. Although creative special coffee is only a small branch of coffee category, creative special coffee, as a kind of new coffee, may also be one of the development trends of the industry in the future. After all, the idea of coffee is getting bolder and bolder nowadays.

Finally, I would like to give a warm reminder that no matter how bold the innovation in the coffee category, the most important thing: coffee should be good.
