Morphology
The meaning 'a beverage that is uniquely prepared or offered' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'specialty' (a notable or distinctive item) with 'drink' (a beverage). This noun–noun compositional pattern is common across languages and follows regular English compounding, so learners who know both constituents should be able to infer the meaning.
Etymology
The phrase specialty drink comes from the idea of a bar or café making a specialty, a 'special' drink that shows what they do best. That's why it means a drink made in a unique way or the shop's own special drink.
