A close-up of three elegantly crafted coffee beverages served in stylish glass mugs on a dark marble countertop. The two larger drinks have a frothy, creamy top with cinnamon dusting—one garnished with a dried berry, the other adorned with a dried strawberry slice and a small heart decoration on a cocktail pick. The smaller central drink is a rich espresso-based beverage with a thick layer of whipped cream, chocolate drizzle, and a cherry garnish. A blurred red floral arrangement in the background adds a romantic ambiance, while heart-shaped decorations and a red straw rest on the counter.
