Abstract

This paper introduces D-MIX, a novel blockchain-based platform to decentralize mixology by enabling sharing, execution, and monetizing original drink recipes. D-MIX enables creators (baristas and bartenders) to securely upload recipes, which then get autonomously reproduced using smart machines called D-MIXers. These drink dispensing machines create drinks according to recipes with precision and consistent quality aided by the D-MIX AI engine. When recipes are used, fair royalty distribution is guaranteed via smart contracts. By integrating blockchain technology with AI-assisted barista/bartender machines, D-MIX bridges the physical and digital realms, offering a solution that can democratize access to exclusive recipes that are only available to locals. Extensive evaluation in the testbed and pilot trials validate the system's performance and effectiveness that it can achieve high precision in recipe reproduction and recreate real-world recipes.
