coffee love

Xue Mingsui started the three-person round table meeting in full swing.

In order to deal with An Qianjing's aggressive approach, Shu Qiao was asked to come to SOLIS every day to discuss the battle plan with the two of them.Since that day, the frequency of Shu Qi's visits to SOLIS has increased, and it has remained stable for a fixed period of time.To use Xue Mingsui's words to explain, as the instigator, he must be responsible for the life and death of their cafe.

The relationship between the three of them gradually became acquainted, and after the meeting, they had nothing to do to chat.The topic was still started by Hua Yunche, and it ran farther and farther away, seeming to be derailed from the tense battle meeting.

The final meeting came to a result after the discussion of the three people.

Hua Yunche was in charge of inquiring about the information of "Brown Language", and obtained fragmentary information from the people who came and went. "Coffee Language" uses excellent Arabica coffee beans. This coffee bean has a balanced flavor and almost no sour taste. It can be called the most suitable variety for fancy coffee.The coffee in the menu is more or less inseparable from the Japanese style.More importantly - they are not obsessed with fully expressing the aroma of coffee, but mixing other flavors. "Togetsukyo" is the most popular coffee among customers. It was originally a fancy coffee variety created by a cafe in Shinjuku. The extracted Espresso is mixed with bean paste filling, and it is also paired with cinnamon powder and cinnamon rolls. It can be said that it is very interesting.

Putting aside the manpower and material resources of the other party, An Qianjing made good use of coffee and other condiments to make it the main product of the cafe.The selection of coffee ingredients means that the flavors between them can be balanced, or they can collide with each other.All of these require the exquisite craftsmanship of the barista. SOLIS really cannot compare with it.

However, if you want to defeat him, you can pick out its shortcomings and take advantage of what the opponent lacks.The most important point is to maintain the uniqueness and competitiveness of its own coffee.

"...Although "SOLIS" belongs to you, but in my opinion, it does not mean that you have the essence of "SOLIS". "

Xue Mingsui blurted out, "Shu Qiao, why do you insist on protecting our cafe?"

Shu Qiao stammered, "...it's nothing interesting, you're thinking too much."

"Then you only order Irish coffee every time you come, is it because you only like the coffee he made?"

"I just think...the Irish coffee you brew has an earthy taste, full of love and passion for traditional coffee."

He didn't realize what he had said until after he finished speaking. The man was making jokes.Busily trying to explain, Xue Mingsui laughed, leaving Shu Qiao no chance to explain.

Xue Mingsui started the first step of counterattack.

First of all, try to research different coffees, check the common ingredients one by one, think about their flavors, and what kind of flavors will evolve when they are paired with coffee.Then draw up several new types of coffee that you want to blend, which must be different from the previous coffee, add new elements, and maintain the characteristics of traditional coffee.

After the newly made coffee was finished, Xue Mingsui found various reasons to ask Shu Qiao to help taste it.Shu Qiao was always able to give appropriate opinions and put forward suggestions for improvement, which further verified the conjectures in Xue Mingxi's mind.

In the end, Xue Mingsui made the coffee he wanted.

Shu quietly took a sip and said, "This is a latte? But with brandy and syrup added."

"Yeah, I tried to accentuate its flavor."

"It's good," Shu Qiao savored the lingering fragrance in her mouth, "but I didn't feel the smell of winter. In other words, the brandy didn't exert its strong effect."

"what do you mean?"

"That is to say, after I drank it, I didn't feel the winter warmth brought by this cup of coffee."

Xue Mingsui woke up.

In the afternoon, I went to the mall to buy some ingredients, and Shu Qiao lay on the bar counter, watching him work, "You have a strong comprehension ability."

Xue Mingsui twirled the teaspoon, "That's really a compliment, it's all thanks to you."

"No, I mean, you are quite talented." Shu Qiao raised her head.

Xue Mingsui looked at him, meeting his clear eyes.

Hua Yunche makes desserts from time to time, from yesterday's mango sago dew to today's ice cream muffins. Sliced ​​fruit, topped with chocolate sauce, is very tempting.

Xue Mingsui smiled and said, "It's been a long time since I ate the dessert you made. After opening the cafe, I seldom need you to work."

Hua Yunche smiled.

It was only then that Shu Qiao saw Hua Yunche's craftsmanship, and after asking, she found out that the two were university alumni.Xiaosi hasn't visited recently, so she is probably worried about her shop.

Relaxed laughter came from time to time in the cafe.

The short time in the afternoon also passed slowly amidst their laughter. Xue Mingsui continued to fight with another coffee, tried repeatedly, and finally reached a perfect fusion. You are satisfied."

Shu quietly took a look.

A light green coffee cup exudes the spicy aroma of ginger candy. The surface is covered with a layer of light milk foam. The milky white cat latte art and the surrounding light brown powder seem to melt together.

Shu Qiao's eyes lit up and she mentioned Yipin.

Where is a layer of milk foam, which is clearly fused with the ground ginger candy.The milky and elegant latte has a slightly spicy ginger juice.The spiciness rushes into the nasal cavity, followed by the sweetness of red dates.Taking one bite, it seemed that the cold internal organs were about to melt, and my heart felt warm.

He laughed, "You actually blend red dates and ginger tea with espresso?"

"That's right, I chose old ginger and red dates to make it. Ginger tea is added to the espresso to make a new type of latte, which is both fusion and enhancement."

"What sugar did you use?"

"brown sugar."

"Well, it really meets the needs of customers for hot drinks in winter." Shu nodded quietly.

Hua Yunche said, "While tasting the coffee, the winter chill is also dispelled."

"However, the taste needs to be improved. Longan can be added to the ginger tea to make the taste richer and fuller. In addition, I think brown sugar can be replaced with brown sugar."

"Brown sugar?"

"Well, it's also a kind of brown sugar, but it takes longer to cook, so it's more nutritious and tastes better."

Xue Mingsui thought for a while, "But I seem to seldom see its use."

"Oh... that's the name in District [-]."

"..." Xue Mingsui was silent for a while, "District [-]?"

The atmosphere was strangely quiet for a while.

"Uh... nothing, I was talking nonsense."

Hua Yunche suggested that the cup of ginger latte can be used to learn "brown language".Replace it with a LOGO with the SOLIS logo and make it a winter signature drink.It is indeed feasible to attract customers' attention from the appearance, and promote the hot sale of ginger latte. Xue Mingsui quickly handed over the important task of cup design to Hua Yunche.

Shu Qiao was puzzled: "Yun Che, did you study design?"

"Not really," Xue Mingsui replied on his behalf, "He is a media major, but this major is a bit complicated, and he can learn everything."

"I learn everything, and the classes are too many and complicated, and I don't know what to say, which makes people confused."

"Have you thought about what to do after graduation?"

Hua Yunche was taken aback, "Not yet."

The glass design of the ginger latte was completed in no time.With the assistance of the other two, I quickly contacted the store to make an exclusive cup shape. The appearance is simple and white, and the cup body is printed with a light coffee-colored store LOGO.There is also a cup sleeve made of kraft paper on the outer edge of the cup, which is also printed with LOGO. Firstly, it prevents hot hands, and secondly, it provides customers with hand-warming service.

The counterattack plan was basically completed in this way.
