Coffee Talk Tokyo puts you behind the counter of a late-night Tokyo café where the drinks you brew directly shape how each customer's story ends. With 54 special recipes spread across six ingredient families, keeping track of every combination is genuinely tricky, especially since getting the temperature wrong produces a completely different drink. This guide covers every recipe in the game, organized by base ingredient, so you can find what you need fast whether you're working through the story or hunting down the last few entries for the Master Brewer achievement.
How does brewing work in Coffee Talk Tokyo?
Every drink starts with a temperature choice: Hot or Cold. Get this wrong and you will not make the drink you intended, full stop. After setting the temperature, you pick three ingredients in sequence: a base (Coffee, Tea, Green Tea, Hojicha, Chocolate, or Soymilk), a primary ingredient, and a secondary ingredient. The primary slot carries more flavour weight than the secondary, which means the same two ingredients in a different order can produce a different result.
The bottom shelf adds flavour modifiers: Yuzu, Ginger, Honey, Mint, Mango, Lychee, Whipped Cream, and Ice Cream. Every ingredient combination produces something, but only the 54 recipes listed below are logged in the Brewpad as special drinks.
You only need to brew each special drink once for it to register in the Brewpad. That means you can catch missed recipes in Endless Mode's Free Brew or Challenges without replaying story days.
Standard drinks, like a plain Yuzu Tea Float, are not recorded in the Brewpad at all. The Brewpad tracks special recipes only, and the blacked-out entries are your checklist for completion.
Brewpad tracks your discoveries
How do you fix a brewing mistake?
Three options exist if you make a wrong drink:
- Use the Reset option before you brew to start the current drink over.
- Trash the drink before serving it. You can trash up to five drinks per day.
- Save before a tricky order and reload if the result is not what you wanted.
Serving the wrong drink to a customer during story mode can affect character outcomes. Save before important orders if you are chasing best endings.
Every Coffee recipe
Caffe Latte, warm and simple
All 14 coffee-based recipes use Coffee as the base ingredient.
Every Tea recipe
All 11 tea recipes use Tea as the base.
The Yuzu Honey Cooler must be unlocked during story mode on Day 6 before it becomes available to brew again in other modes.
Every Green Tea recipe
Green Tea covers both standard green tea and matcha. The game treats them as one ingredient, so the same base produces drinks labelled as either style depending on the combination.
Matcha Mango Latte, cold brew
Every Hojicha recipe
Hojicha is a dry-roasted Japanese green tea with a nuttier, less bitter flavour than regular green tea. Its roasted character makes it particularly good with Yuzu, Ginger, and Honey combinations.
Every Chocolate recipe
The in-game container is labelled Choco Powder, but the ingredient functions as the Chocolate base for all eight recipes below.
Every Soymilk recipe
Soymilk is the only non-caffeinated base in the game. It is the preferred option for Erika, the only child among the story's main customers, making these seven recipes worth learning early.
Mint Milk, a soymilk staple
What is the fastest way to unlock every recipe for Master Brewer?
The Master Brewer achievement requires every special drink to be logged in the Brewpad. Since story mode does not force you to brew all 54 recipes, the most efficient approach after finishing the main story is to open Endless Mode and work through the remaining blacked-out entries systematically by base ingredient.
A few practical tips from testing the full recipe list:
- Start each session by filtering your Brewpad to see which base still has the most missing entries. Chocolate and Soymilk tend to have the fewest story-forced brews, so they often have the most gaps.
- The Hiyashi Matcha (Cold, Green Tea, Green Tea, Green Tea) and Matcha (Hot, Green Tea, Green Tea, Green Tea) look nearly identical in ingredient terms but produce different drinks purely because of temperature. Double-check both.
- Iced Hojicha and Hojicha work the same way: identical ingredients, opposite temperatures.
- The Tomodachill social app and the loading screen recipe hints can surface recipes you have not found yet. Check both regularly.
Endless Mode's Free Brew lets you experiment without any story pressure. If you are missing a handful of recipes, this is the cleanest place to knock them out.

Ingredient quick-reference
Not sure which base to start with when a customer gives a vague order? This breakdown maps common customer clues to their most likely base ingredient.
Orders in Coffee Talk Tokyo are written as natural dialogue rather than direct requests, so reading the mood of the conversation matters as much as the specific words. A customer describing something "warming and spiced" is almost certainly pointing toward Ginger as a primary or secondary ingredient.
For a broader look at games in this genre, the adventure games section has more titles worth exploring if Coffee Talk Tokyo's café storytelling style appeals to you.
