This is 非 with a 口 radical, so you can remember the pinyin will be fei for this.

The right part looks like a cup of coffee with slots for your fingers for better grip.

To recall writing the character 啡, you can think of it as a combination of two components: 口 (kǒu) meaning “mouth” and 非 (fēi) representing the sound “fēi”. Start with the 口 shape and add the 非 shape inside. This character is pronounced as “fēi” in Mandarin Chinese, just like the word for “coffee” (kāfēi). So, think of 啡 as a visual representation of the sound and concept of coffee! ☕️

You use your mouth to blow on the hot coffee, and the second part of the character looks like a coffee plant with the beans growing on it.

it might be cool to remember if you keep in mind the mouth radical on the right and imagine a worm that has six legs growing from the size on the left.

This is a bit abstract, but this character looks like a coffee bean (left part) that is being turned into ground coffeee by the right character, with the strands looking like grinding blades!

It looks like the cup that coffee is usually in with the 口 radical looking like the handle and the other side looking like the cylinder part of the cup.
