Hardly any other beverage is used as experimentally as coffee. Unusual coffee creations, bright designs and colors as well as healthy ingredients are more in focus than ever.

Trend 1 Cold brew tonic

For this mixed drink, a classic cold brew coffee is mixed with tonic water in a ratio of 1:2. Add a few ice cubes and a slice of orange. And if you're a gin lover, add a shot of gin.

Trend 2 Coffbucha

Coffee and kombucha are mixed here. Kombucha is a superfood and makes a great refreshing drink. Kombucha is produced when sweetened tea is fermented by the so-called kombucha fungus. Kombucha is drunk cold, just like the mixed drink Coffbucha. Kombucha is a true benefactor for the body: the probiotics it contains have positive effects on the gut, heart and brain.

Trend 3 Egg Coffee

A Vietnamese coffee specialty is making a name for itself: egg coffee, prepared with eggs. Something for the sweet-toothed among us. The egg yolk is whipped into a foam with plenty of sugar or sweet condensed milk and then added to the coffee.

Trend 4 Maca

Another superfood coffee. Maca is a cress-like plant from the Peruvian Andes. Maca coffee is a real stimulant, as the maca tuber has a caffeine content three to five times higher than coffee. Its powder is simply added to the coffee.

Trend 5 Cornettochino

Two of the most delicious things combined: cornetto and cappuchino. At the Fenster Café in Vienna, you not only get a delicious coffee served directly through the eponymous window, but also the unique combination of an ice cream cone.

Culinary Arts as the Driving Force Behind Urban Spaces

Culinary arts are becoming a central component of urban spaces: In mixed-use projects, they drive foot traffic, foster a sense of identity, and redefine places. As a social engine, gastronomy connects people, revitalizes neighborhoods, and often becomes the first visible sign of change. At the same time, it gives brick-and-mortar retail new relevance—extending dwell times, increasing foot traffic, and making brands immediately tangible.
