Chicken with ginger and onion, hand-washed bitter gourd, beef ball latte ... "Special coffee" may be the most brain-opening category.
In Guizhou and Yunnan, there is a fearsome coffee with broken ears. It seems that you can smell the exotic fragrance just by listening to the name.
There are also many special tunes that make people's eyes shake, such as Nanjing salted duck special tune and Changsha stinky tofu latte ... I won't give examples here, because I really can't count them.
Did you find it? This exciting special coffee is characterized by "contrast".
The more ingredients that have little to do with the coffee itself, the more gimmicks there are-in short, take out the cooking energy to make coffee. Roasted goose coffee, boiled chicken coffee, tofu coffee, broken ear coffee ... remove the word coffee, they are all dishes.
Pineapple coffee VS pineapple goo meat coffee, who do you want to poke!
Restaurants know this well and have inherent advantages.
Taier pickled fish and Hao Hao Coffee jointly launched "Sauerkraut Latte with Original Juice". This name is sour and cool! In name, it sells coffee, but in fact, it sells its own soul sauerkraut.

Later, they launched several other specialty coffees in the pop-up shop, claiming that "at the same time, five kinds of Sichuan and Chongqing ingredients will be integrated into western-style trendy coffee, which will collide with different sparks and give you an unexpected coffee experience!" It's hard not to doubt whether these inspirations were "captured" directly in the Queen Mother's kitchen.

I think this routine is very useful on the Internet. When they promote their own "pickled fish with ear coffee", they also follow this routine, demonstrating what coriander coffee, durian coffee and garlic coffee are all made by themselves ... and calling on netizens to open their minds.
Netizens' brains are really big. In the creative carnival of "Special Coffee", not only coffee practitioners, but also netizens who like to drink coffee contributed many recipes with a large flow.
For example, the popular espresso+ glutinous rice balls on social media, I don't know whether it opened a brand-new way to eat glutinous rice balls or contributed a brand-new way to open coffee. Similarly, rice rolls and oysters can also be served with espresso.

It's not just broken-ear coffee, but also American-style Huoxiang Zhengqi Ice developed by netizens, and the triple crit of get herb+alcohol+caffeine.
