In the public impression, "volume" seems to be the norm for independent coffee lists. Some coffee shops rely on unique decoration and outstanding appearance to attract powder, some rely on intimate service and word-of-mouth to occupy a place in the hearts of customers, and some are sought after by virtue of quality and unexpected creativity.

Recently, a cup of "Snake coffee" that fell below everyone's glasses became popular on the Internet because of its strong visual impact, attracting many warriors to buy and try.

Through the sharing of netizens on the social platform, we learned that a coffee shop in Hangzhou recently designed two special tunes for the year of the Snake, "Bai Suzhen" and "Zhuyeqing", inspired by the local culture and the legend of the White Snake, and began to sell them to the outside world. the shopkeeper's use of real snakes has aroused the attention and discussion of curious consumers.

In the photos of customers, the two "Snake Cafe" sold in the coffee shop use a white snake stem strung together with a tag, and the texture on the snake skin can be clearly seen in the light. According to the coffee shop operator, the dried snake used for decoration on the coffee is a genuine medicine made from the white snake and can be eaten.

There is no denying that such unique ideas and ideas surprised many onlookers, but some people felt numb when they saw the well-textured real snake in the camera.

They say that although dried snakes only play a decorative role in the drink and do not affect the flavor of the drink itself, seeing a small snake on the liquid surface before drinking has a somewhat frightening visual effect. "I can't even watch it if I like to keep a snake,"I can jump three feet high," and "it can scare me away."

However, for the brave, they will not be frightened at all by the well-textured dried snake. instead, they lament that the store uses real materials and wonder if the snake can be eaten and what it tastes like. The first wave of experimenters said that the taste of snake jerky was a bit like fried grasshoppers, with a slight aroma of jerky and no bad smell.

However, perhaps the sensory impact of dried snakes is so strong that most customers who clock in to taste fresh food only drink coffee and pack up the dried snakes for decoration. The store thinks that "maybe people still can't accept the appearance of the little snakes." Some people joked that "when the coffee is finished, the dried snake will take it back to make wine for the family."

In the pursuit of novelty consumers, the store designed this "Snake Caf" is very bold and unexpected, just the appearance of the guests to clock in to leave a deep impression.

However, the doctor said that although the dried white snake selected by the store is a non-toxic traditional Chinese medicine, such a small amount of use will not have the effect of dispelling rheumatism and treating skin diseases. "if you eat, it will not be a big problem," but for people with allergies, try this cup of "snake coffee" with caution.

The shop owner also said that in view of the fact that customers may be scared by dried snakes, they may not place real snakes as decorations for customers who are afraid of snakes, but may replace them with snake elements such as flower drawing.
