From Goodfellas (1990)
Manhattan
Pairing
Serve when
Pour it at the Copa, the night the whole room already knows your name.
What to drink
Henry and the crew drink at the Copa and pour smuggled wine in prison; the Manhattan is the classic New York whiskey cocktail of that world — the pour for a wiseguy night out. A suggested pairing, not a specific on-screen drink.
Ingredients
Steps
