Their favorite drink to make:
Karena: “I like making mochas.”
Kendall: “Americanos.”
Lisa: “Definitely Americanos. They’re simple.”
Best part of being a barista:
Karena: “You just hang out and talk to people all day.”
Kendall: “I get to be myself completely. It’s the most wonderful job ever.”
Lisa: “The hours.”
