I think I may redraft a feature proposal for the shop focusing providing 
takeout beverages or only have very limit seats and merge the bubble tea shop 
proposal into it. Right now we have amenity=cafe and shop=beverages for those 
sell drinks. Actually I'm not sure that if the feature of a amenity=cafe is 
providing a cozy social/rest space or not. But it seems like both of the two 
tags are not suitable for shops I want to map.

The proposal would introduce a new tag (maybe amenity=drinks or 
amenity=takeout_drinks or what). This kind of places sell beverages mostly with 
takeaway paper or plastic cup, people can drink in their home or office after 
buying.

This kind of places may focus on different drinks: coffee/iced tea/juice/bubble 
tea/etc... We can use the existing cuisine=* tag or a new tag for example 
drinks=juice to distinguish what they focus on, and drink:*=yes to show if a 
shop provides a kind of drink. (BTW do anyone thinks cuisine=coffee_shop or 
cuisine=teahouse are weird as me?)

Also, some of places may provides 3 or 4 seats. The seats is mainly for thirsty 
customers to take a rest and have some drinks. But they wouldn't spend more 
than half an hour in the shop, let alone meeting or working in the shop, which 
make these not a amenity=cafe. We can still use capacity=* for tagging the 
number of seats.

There are some photos to show the concept of this proposal, all of these shop 
is located in my hometown:

drink on their office hours
https://www.instagram.com/p/CA27iqYpvwz/ they focus on selling plum green tea 
but also selling bubble teas
https://www.instagram.com/p/BS6DKVuF7IZ/ most of their drinks are juice, sells 
juice tea too.
and some shop is in the department store sorry for no pictures I found, anyone 
who have similar example of this kind of shop can also add the content.

I'm not sure if a juice stand may be located in a outlet or amusement park 
should tagged as this tag. But after this proposal we can merged the bubble tea 
proposal and the juice bar proposal 
(https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Juice_bar) to clarify 
the tagging scheme of these shops.
