Barista Cousin
The Barista Cousin is a shop NPC that teaches Aura drink recipes. You craft the drinks at the Barista, and each one unlocks an Aura color. He appears on a timer at one of 13 fixed spots across the Second Sea and the Third Sea, and your Aura must be at stage 5 before he teaches you anything. Before Update 24 he was the Master of Auras.

Where do you find the berries?
Every recipe above needs berries, and all eight kinds grow in bushes in the First, Second and Third Sea. The biggest bush counts are Hydra Island (66), Great Tree (23), Hot and Cold (18) and the Jungle (17). The Berries page lists the bush count of every island, and each berry above links to its own page.

How do you find the Barista Cousin fast?
Set a Home Point, server hop, and check the spots in a loop. The Second Sea has fewer spots that are closer together, so it is the better sea for this. The first two methods need nothing; the last two need the Portal fruit, whose C move warps you across the map.
