Abstract

To make discharge of beverage from a nozzle desirable and supply a beverage hygienically.SOLUTION: A beverage supply apparatus discharges a beverage prepared in a beverage generation section 30 provided inside an apparatus body 1 from a nozzle 50 disposed in an aspect facing a beverage supply section 22 formed in the apparatus body 1 to supply the beverage to a cup C placed in the beverage supply section 22. The nozzle 50 includes: a first nozzle discharge section 53 communicating with an inside of a nozzle body part 51 that introduces the beverage through a first flow-in port 531 being an upper end opening and discharging the beverage having flowed in from the first flow-in port 531 from a first discharge port 532 being a lower end opening; and a second nozzle discharge section 54 communicating with the inside of the nozzle body part 51 through a second flow-in port 541 being an upper end opening and discharging the beverage having flowed in from the second flow-in port 541 from a second discharge port 542 being a lower end opening. The second nozzle discharge section 54 is provided in an aspect adjacent to the first nozzle discharge section 53 and the second flow-in port 541 is disposed lower than the first flow-in port 531.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5
