One crater during a time: McKinney sisters’ blog explores Texas coffee shops

One demeanour during a Boykin sisters could bleed thoughts of 3 untroubled millennials with zero on their minds though school, boys and Snapchat. But one review with a 3 immature ladies shows that couldn’t be serve from a truth.

McKinney residents Allie, 21; Madison, 19; and Kaylee, 15 – while apropos savvy businesswomen with an eye on a destiny – illuminate zero though certain vibes. Earlier this year, a siblings started Coffee Over Tejas, a quirky blog that explores Texas coffee shops.

Allie, who is a comparison during Texas AM, is a blog’s writer; Madison, a sophomore during Blinn College, is a photographer; and Kaylee, a sophomore during Boyd High School, is a trio’s tech expert.

At 2,200 supporters and counting, a blog’s Instagram comment is filled with a sisters’ java adventures, that widen from Dallas to Houston. And it all started with Grandma.

“We’ve desired coffee ever given we were little,” Madison said. “We’d go to a grandma’s house, and she’d always give us coffee.”

On a heels of a open mangle outing in Beaumont with family, a track idea took a girls by Livingston where they visited a initial coffee emporium on their blog, a Bull Shack.

“It was super spur-of-the-moment,” Allie said. “We went to a coffee emporium and it had a unequivocally good backstory, and we took some unequivocally good photos in a state park and around a city since it has a lovable downtown like McKinney. We put a website together that night.”

As of Friday, a blog has a new home during coffeeovertejas.com, a miracle that isn’t mislaid on a Boykin sisters.

“We did a video, and it was only me seeking people to suggest places,” Allie said. “It was kind of awkward, though it has like 1,000 views. We were like, ‘Oh my gosh, 1,000 people have seen that video of me.’ It’s super sparkling since we unequivocally didn’t design it to be like this.”

Madison pronounced a supporter even told them they wish to take “a Coffee Over Tejas adventure.”

“In a behind of a minds we wanted it to be big, though we didn’t unequivocally know how quick that would happen,” she said.

While any one of a bloggers will transport an hour or some-more for coffee, they don’t let their studies slip. Allie and Madison, both study education, typically take task with them when they revisit a new shop. Kaylee, who plays basketball year round, has reduction time to revisit new shops.

“But when they come home, they’re going to have to move me with them,” she said. Otherwise, she stays bustling with any technology-related needs that come up.

While a sisters keep a blog positive, they’re in hold with how they like their coffee – and their cafes, for that matter.

“We don’t write about places we don’t like,” Allie said. But if they’re not tender on their initial visit, they don’t mind giving it another try. Either way, they say, they’re not into business-bashing.

“That’s a proceed we’ve motionless to take, and we try to prominence a certain things about a shops,” Allie said. “It’s only partial of a goal of perplexing to prominence a Texas towns and conclude a state.”
