"Dear viewers, welcome back to the final stage of the Japan Barista Competition. After the fierce competition in the first two rounds, the five players who have stood out from the 50 players who have passed the preliminaries from all over the country will hopefully win this year's Japan Barista Competition. champions. They are…”

Following the introduction of the host in turn, the five contestants who entered the final stage also came to the center of the venue one after another. Seeing that there were many times more spectators around the hall than in the morning, Sakurako's mood could not help but surge.

The so-called creative coffee is to develop a new drinking method that is completely different from the previous traditional coffee. This also means that what this link tests is actually the innovation ability of the baristas themselves. Because the focus of the investigation is different, the coffee cups used by Creative Coffee are also completely different from the previous two links. Baristas can choose different utensils to make amazing new coffee according to their own creativity and needs.

After the referee on the field announced the official start of the game, the players present began to get busy one after another. Soon, the audience at the scene discovered that there are many things that have never been seen in the coffee house that appeared in the final of the barista competition.

"Let's see what kind of special coffee the players on the court are planning to make! Player Izaki from Maruyama Coffee, wait a minute, is he going to make cocktails on the spot?"

Following the host's surprised introduction, the cameras on the field quickly focused on the bar where Maruyama Coffee was located. At this moment, Izaki player introduced cold water mixed with ice cubes into the cold brewing pot to extract the coffee. Although the ice water is poured, because the coffee itself is compatible with water, the ice water in the pot can dissolve the active ingredients in the coffee powder at a very slow speed. Compared with traditional dark coffee, the biggest advantage of iced coffee is that it removes the sour taste of the coffee itself, which is not easy to cause any stomach discomfort. At the same time, iced coffee is easier to match with other drinks, so It has a richer expression on the taste.

Because the final stage allows players to prepare in advance, the original hours-long ice extraction process began long before the official start of the competition. Izaki Eden looked at most of the coffee in the coffee pot, and estimated that it should be able to meet the needs of four creative coffees. At this moment, he took out a cocktail glass that is common in bars. First pour the ice-cold cold brew coffee into the mixing glass, and then add some cherry-flavored bit wine to mix thoroughly. When everything is ready, this coffee with cocktail culture is poured into the preparation in advance. In a good cocktail glass, then use a toothpick to insert a cherry on the wine glass, and the creative coffee work of Maruyama Coffee is completed.

"Ah... Maruyama Coffee's Izaki was the first to complete his own work, and what he brought to everyone was... a creative cocktail coffee named Meilus, the perfect combination of coffee and cocktail culture... Really big brains Creative ideas!"

Just after Izaki Eden was the first to complete his work, Donghai Keshi from Kyoto 100% Arabica Coffee also completed his own work, and he brought a layered coffee called Darkness. Combination of ice cream, espresso and vanilla seed syrup. The coffee in the cup is clearly divided into upper and lower layers.

As the two most dazzling players on the field completed their works one after another, among the remaining three players, only Sakurako was calmly preparing her own iced coffee. Sakurako kept looking at the thermometer outside the container, and seemed to be very concerned about the temperature of the iced coffee. Other than that, she didn't do anything else.

Two more contestants have completed their own creations. The creative coffees they brought are... Eggnog Latte and Butter Coffee. It seems that everyone is very interested in the combination of coffee and cocktail culture! There are actually two contestants whose works are related to cocktail culture. The other two contestants chose a brand new idea for milk coffee, so... Ms. Sakurako from Tokyo Sakura no Sato Coffee House intends to bring us such a surprise? Wait, is he still making cold brew? This part is a test of creative coffee.

Just when the game time was about to run out, Sakurako finally started to act. She took out four pre-chilled beer mugs from under the counter, and then the iced coffee that she had been preparing since just now. Pour into four beer glasses. Immediately afterwards, Sakurako took out a nitrogen cylinder and started her final processing.

"Wait a minute, what is Miss Sakurako doing, is he going to refill the coffee? This is..."

Under the unanimous gaze of the audience, Sakurako quickly injected a lot of nitrogen into the iced coffee she made. And with it, the coffee began to have a rich foam effect similar to beer.

"Is this... beer? I really didn't expect that Miss Sakurako turned coffee into beer in front of everyone's eyes. But just adding gas can really make coffee taste like beer? curious!"

When Sakurako finished her work, the audience couldn't help but wonder, what does the coffee alcohol, which seems beyond common sense, taste like?

With the end of the game~lightnovelpub.net~, the four referees from off the field came to the field again and began to taste the creative coffee prepared by the players one by one. When they finished tasting a player's work, they would rinse with water The mouth immediately tastes the next one. After they tasted all the works, they immediately gathered together and had a lively discussion.

Ten minutes later, when the referees sent the final result to the host, the host announced loudly.

"The champion of this year's Japan Barista Competition is... Ms. Sakurako from Tokyo Sakura no Sato Coffee!"

Following the host's announcement, Lin Xiuyi and Sakurako's friends couldn't help but jumped up from the audience. And Sakurako stood there with a look of surprise. Then, after the other players gradually accepted the result, the former opponents also went to Sakurako to express their congratulations to her.

...

"Let's congratulate this year's new champion, Miss Sakurako from Tokyo Sakura no Sato Coffee. The judge's evaluation of her stout coffee is that it has a taste and texture that is not inferior to German stout, and the way it is prepared. Bold and simple, it has created an unprecedented path for coffee innovation. Miss Sakurako, may I ask... how did you come up with your coffee beer?"

"Is this! Actually, it was because my friend came to the store one day and said that he really wanted to drink beer, but because of work, he could only use coffee to relieve fatigue. I thought at the time, if there is a drink that contains beer How good is the taste and the effect of coffee, so...I made this coffee temporarily. That's it..."

"So that's what it is. It really is a creative coffee created because of friendship. We congratulate Miss Sakurako, and congratulations to Sakura no Sato Coffee House, which won the Japanese Barista Competition in just one year of business."
