March 08, 2027
Tasting Theater (Room 1A02)
Coffee Skills Series

Textures, layers, and inclusions are currently leading the charge in signature drink innovation. From silky cold foams and decadent cream tops to vibrant fruit purées and playful, crunchy inclusions, texture is redefining how specialty beverages look, feel, and taste on a global scale. This 1.5-hour workshop is designed for baristas and beverage program managers looking to elevate their menu with multi-sensory experiences. 

Attendees will leave this session with a practical "texture toolkit," including foundational recipes and the creative confidence to design signature beverages that stand out in a competitive market. Join us to explore where the texture movement stands today and gain the practical skills needed to build the next generation of signature drinks.

This class is a mix of theory, tastings, and volunteer hands-on opportunities.
