In Coffee Talk Episode 2: Hibiscus & Butterfly, you are the sole barista of Coffee Talk, which is a coffee shop in rainy Seattle. While a large portion of the game has you simply reading the conversations between yourself and the customers that visit your cafe, your brewing techniques will play a part in whether or not you can succeed in helping people find happiness in their lives. No, this is not an exaggeration. Special drinks in the game will help you fill out your brewpad, but just what are the special drinks in Coffee Talk 2?
First of all, special drinks are very literally that—drinks that have a special and unique design. If your drink is something like “Mint Cinnamon Tea” and it looks like a plain ol’ drink, then it will not appear in your brewpad. Aside from unlocking them as you progress the story, you can also experiment in the Free Brew and Challenge modes.
As an aside, there are two teas that require you to get far enough in the story. You will not be able to unlock the “Five Stars!” or Berry-Blue Hibiscus “Pie” drinks in Free Brew. If you try to create it in that mode without first unlocking the recipe in the story, then the drink will not appear as a special one.
Remember that the order you input the ingredients in matters! This is because whether an ingredient is the primary or secondary one will affect the flavor profile of a drink. Here are all of the special drinks, in the brewpad’s order, that you can unlock in Coffee Talk Episode 2: Hibiscus & Butterfly:
