Vignettes in a Cup is the newest event in Honkai Star Rail that arrived alongside the game's Version 2.1. This permanent event has the player mixing a whole lot of drinks, so in this guide, we will teach you how to make all of the drinks for Vignettes in a Cup.

The Vignettes in a Cup event is one of the game's Conventional Memoirs. That is, it is a permanent event. Not only that, but the entirety of the event is available from the get-go. That means that players can finish the entire event in one go.

Vignettes in a Cup Basics

Vignettes in a Cup is a bartending event, with players having to mix up drinks based on what the customer wants. Each drink making session has four steps. In the first step, players must select the size of the drink's glass. The size will dictate how many ingredients players can mix together. The second step involves choosing the amount of ice to place inside the glass. Unless specified, the amount of ice does not actually factor much into the final product. The third step involves the creation of the drink itself. Players can pour one ingredient at a time, with the option to stir the ingredients together once. The final step is choosing what decoration to put on the drink. Like the ice, this does not affect the drink unless specified.

During the drink mixing process, players will have to balance the drink's three traits. The first is its Sweetness, which can go between Very Sweet and Very Bitter. Next is its Intensity, which can go between Very Strong and Very Mellow. Lastly, is its Thickness, which can go between Very Thick and Very Refreshing. Balancing these traits using the drink's ingredients is key for this event.

Vignettes in a Cup Drink Orders Guide

This drink making event has two phases. The first phase involves creating drinks for the customers based on what they request for. We will first be going over the drinks that each customer will be asking for as well as how to make them.

Spade Drinks Guide

During Spade's first visit, he will ask for two drinks: A Lost Twilight, and something Super Intense. Follow the recipe for the Lost Twilight, then make either a Metropolitan Roam or a Clockwise Sleeptalk for the second request.

On Spade's second visit, he will ask for something in a Small Glass with a Strong Taste as his first drink. We found that this recipe works to meet his demands:

  • Ultimate Syrup
  • Practitioner Pepper
  • Ice SoulGlad

He then asks for something in a Large Glass that is Bitter and is Super Strong for his second drink. Here is a recipe that meets his demands:

  • Dream jam

Mr. Bigwig Drinks Guide

During Mr. Bigwig's first visit, he will ask for a Refreshing drink for his first drink. Players can make a Clockwise Sleeptalk to meet his requirements.

On Mr. Bigwig's second visit, he will first ask for a drink that is Large (use a Large Glass) and Strong. Strong is misleading here, as it actually recquires the player to make a drink with a Thickness of 1. The following recipe meets this requirement:

  • Ultimate Syrup
  • Dream Jam
  • Practitioner Pepper 2x

For the second drink, Mr. Bigwig wants a Sweet (>= 1 Sweetness) and Refreshing (Thickness -1) drink. Players can either create a Clockwise Sleeptalk, or make their own custom drink. If the player chooses to make a custom drink, then this recipe works:
