To provide a drink extraction apparatus which can extract a drink in a short time without spoiling the flavor of the extracted drink.
The drink extraction apparatus, which extracts the drink by supplying water A for drink extraction to tea leaves B within an extraction cylinder 11, has a steam supplying device 16 which provides water A held in the extraction cylinder 11 with steam. Thereby, since the water A supplied to the inside of the extraction cylinder 11 is heated by steam, it is not necessary to boil water for drink extraction beforehand before drink extraction as before. Also, since steam agitates the water A and the tea leaves B within the extraction cylinder 11 to heat, the drink is efficiently extracted in a short time. Furthermore, when the supplying amount of the steam is adjusted, the temperature of the drink can also be arbitrarily established.
