Unusual attractions you can do in a classroom for a cultural or school festival
We want to make the most of our once-a-year school festival.

There’s something called aurora powder.
It comes in pink, blue, and lots of other colors, and you can tint clear soda so it looks like the aurora is shimmering through it.
Hard to picture in words? Try searching for a related video—you’ll definitely find yourself thinking, “I want to make this!” You can also wrap cotton candy with aurora powder to add a little flair in the moments before it melts.
Combine it with edible glitter and you can make even more sparkling drinks.
If you care about looks above all, this is a wildly recommended pick.
Stylish drinks made with jelly
@ohtake_food_beauty It won’t come out at all, lol. I’m making a drink with jelly 🍹 and want to get it into the glass, but it just won’t drop, haha. In the end, it turned into a super stylish drink 🫶🏻Otake Higher Vocational SchoolCulinary studentCooking Practice

Let me introduce a stylish drink that uses jelly so you can enjoy both the look and the texture.
Put your favorite flavor of jelly into a cup.
Stir to break up the jelly, then add ice and pour in soda—just like a drink you’d get at a café.
It looks refreshing and cool, which is really lovely.
Try making it with your favorite flavors like strawberry, mandarin orange, or melon.
If you prefer it a bit sweeter, adding syrup is recommended.
Finish with a mint leaf garnish for a cool, refreshing drink!
Honey Matcha Soy Milk Latte
Mock tea ceremony events have started popping up in all kinds of places.
I don’t know all the detailed etiquette or steps, but tea enjoyed while sitting formally somehow carries a taste of tradition.
Everyone seems to love matcha.
A “Honey Matcha Soy Latte” that combines popular matcha with honey and soy milk might also be a hit! You can froth the soy milk or simply shake it with the matcha.
Drizzling the honey on top like a topping works nicely, too.
It could become a great talking point if sold alongside the tea ceremony club’s event!
Heart Drink
The heart mark that everyone loves.
It’s been used as a symbol for the heart since long ago, but did you know that shape also appears in Japanese architecture? When used in openwork carvings and the like, it’s called “inome,” which literally means “boar’s eye”—an intriguing name, isn’t it? If you made a drink covered in cute hearts like that, you’d be a surefire hit at a school festival! The showstopper is creating a big heart mark on the side of the glass with cream or melted marshmallow.
Add heart-shaped chocolates or cookies to finish it off as a lovely, love-themed drink!
Fruits in tea
On hot days, drinks really fly off the shelves.
So here’s a photogenic fruit-infused iced tea to showcase.
Arrange round slices of fruit to decorate a clear cup—lemon and grapefruit work great.
Add ice to hold the fruit in place, pour in iced tea, then top it off with diced fruit.
Dried fruits and nuts are also popular additions.
Adjust the sweetness with honey or syrup to make it a hit with everyone.
You can also switch it up with colored sodas—have fun experimenting!
