This week, we look into the future with Mitalee Bharadwaj and Lisa Yala, co-founders of Transcendence Coffee, the NYC-based flavored syrup brand. Computer engineering majors at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, Mitalee and Lisa were lab partners as well as baristas at the on-campus coffee shop. Mitalee and Lisa’s South Indian and Algerian backgrounds, respectively, served as inspiration for their two syrup flavors—gulab jamun and baklava—which they brought to market just six months after coming up with the idea. Mitalee and Lisa join host Abena Anim-Somuah to talk about bringing joy to coffee, their r&d process, their hopes for future distribution, and knowing their product’s worth.
