1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 7. Add space between the punctuation mark and the following word (or sentence) that is coming after it. It's a general rule in English that there is no space BEFORE the punctuation mark, and there is one space AFTER the punctuation mark
3. Also, no need to capitalize the word if it is not at the beginning of the sentence (or a proper noun)
5. Spelling - bring, brought (bought is the past tense of the verb buy)
It tastes quite refreshing. Of course, you can invite anyone you'd like.
What types of food and drinks does she like?

3. The correct word in the context

5. The only pronoun that is always capitalized is the 1st person singular, I
That's very kind of you!

Thank you.But I'm sorry that she doesn't like beef.Could she have a spicy chicken ones instead? And do you have cola for her?

自然な表現

Thank you. I'm sorry, but she doesn't like beef. Could she have spicy chicken noodles instead? And do you have cola for her?

1. Rephrase for a more natural sound
2. Add space between the punctuation mark and the following word (or sentence) that is coming after it
3. Change for a more precise expression (or leave out the article as it doesn't agree with the plural nouns - Could she have spicy chicken ones instead?
Certainly! We have a spicy chicken ramen that she might enjoy. And yes, we have cola as a non-alcoholic drink option. Is that okay for her?

Yes,it is. I also think that she might enjoy.She'll come here soon!
