The lecture was followed by the activity of making mixed drinks. While considering features of each drink, everyone set his or her own theme such as "Perfect for rehydration in summer", "Zero-calorie mix" and "Takes a pride in visual deliciousness" and took up a challenge of making the one-and-only original mixed drink in the world. Comments such as "It was fun!" and "I made an incredible drink!" were voiced by participants.
