In this episode of The Lunchbucket Podcast, Ellie shares what it’s like to be a Dutch Bros barista. The training she went through, the details involved in making all those specialty caffeinated drinks, and how it feels to interact with customers for hours at a time. Plus, she talks about her favorite lunchtime eats, Bo’s Bagels and her mom’s Black Bean Mango Salad. 

Love, Gail & Donna
