Wednesday is
Guest Day. I invited Santana, my gorgeous little sister as my first guest! Santana is one of those girls you get addicted to. She is funny, smart and sooo much fun! She recently returned to Canada after living in Bali again since she was a teeny weeny girl. She spent her year in Bali as PR for some of the most popular night clubs. In other words she was paid to party!!! And party she did. After trying that out for a while...she decided she was ready for the simple (but wonderful) life again. Now she is back in Gibsons, she has brought her one and only Tommy with her home (breakdancer extraordinaire!). Naturally she is back at Starbucks, whipping up the best tasting beverages and greeting her favorite customers (me!) with her bright smile!
Here is a "confession" she is sharing with us today!
Santana and Tommy
After working at Starbucks for 3 years I have finally perfected the perfect drink! I have gone from such drastic drinks as quad venti espresso frappucinos to tall steamed soy milks (which tasted like cardboard), and have finally found “my usual”.
Being behind the counter allows me to mix all different kinds of syrups together. And of course, taking orders from the highly simple clientele (tall latte) to the …highly sophisticated ( triple ristretto, grande, 2 pump sugar free vanilla, non fat, extra hot, no foam, ez whip mocha) have given me many ideas!
So the next time you’re going in for a quick cup of coffee, consider this drink instead and let me know what you think! Don’t worry about sounding difficult to the barista behind the counter. You wouldn’t believe some of the orders we take!
