Everytime we visited family in Brooklyn, I
couldn't wait to get to my Uncle Nino's pizzeria
and grab a Manhattan Special. I've thought about
having a case shipped to us in Michigan but now I
hear that it's sold here! I can't wait to find
out where!
I just simply love your Manhattan Special. I
left NY 32 years ago and moved to Florida where
I was still able to get my Manhattan Special. I
have been in SC now since 2001 and I cannot find
the soda anywhere. Then, I went to an Italian
Restaurant (Tony's pizzeria on Haywood Road in
Greenville SC) and there it was sitting on his
counter. I was in my glory eating his pizza-the
best I have had since NY and drinking my
Manhattan Special. Is there any place in the
Greenville SC area that this is sold...besides
buying it by the bottle.? I need quantity!!!!! I
even have my mid-western husband onto Manhattan
Special!....................
there are certain things in life that make us
remember. maybe a song. or a smell. well when
ever i taste the smooth rich flavor of manhatten
special it always reminds me of my grandmother.
how as a child she would sit outside our home on
a warm summers night and drink manhatten special.
she would always give me a taste. now when ever i
have a glass of manhatten special i never fail
too think of my dear grandmother. thankyou for
the memorys
i started drinking manhatten speacial 20 years
ago. it was a hot jully morning. i had just woken
only to find i was out of coffee.going to my
local grocery store up the block from where i
live to buy a cup of coffee at the local grocery
store.as i passed the refri gorator box i noticed
a small bottle of manhatten special siting on the
shelf stareing out at me.the first thing i
noticied was the deep rich color, and like a bee
is drawn too honey i couldnt resist. at witch
time i poured into a cup. added half and half.
well i still remember the smooth rich taste like
it was yesterday. and since that day there is not
a day that pass's that i dont treat my self with
a cup of manhatten special.i also now am enjoying
all your other flavors. i am only disapointed
that they are some times hard too find.
THE BEST COFFEE SODA EVER!!!
The smell of the coffee soda alone makes me
happy. I picked up a few bottles of diet by
accident and was really surprised at how good it
was. I haven't been able to find Manhattan
Special in CT so I was excited to grab a few
bottles when back in NYC. I wish they sold the
coffee beans too.
I only started drinking Manhattan Special a few
years ago. I started working on the docks and I
noticed thats what all the guys drank. A good
friend of mine down there got me hooked on it
and I have been drinking it ever since. I love
it and it is my favorite soft drink. I also like
the diet version.
love the beverage for over 30 years. one of the
reasons i will never leave Brooklyn! We bring
cases into the office here in ocean, nj!
What great soda! And it's even available now in
Michigan! I'm hooked...I'd rather buy a few
bottles of Manhattan Special than a case of
the "other" kind! The coffee mixtures and
the "pop" are equally fantastic! You have a
great product here..and it sure doesn't hurt that
it came from New york!
I absolutely LOVE this drink! I grew up drinking
this when my dad owned his own business in Staten
Island and we would go to the deli on the corner.
My mom would get a buttered roll and Manhattan
Special, so of course I would drink my mom's at a
very young age (at least 5) and have loved it ever
since! I have been out of NY for 23 years, but
would search high and low for some whenever I
visited NY. I haven't had it in so many years
because I can't get it here in Indiana. I can't
wait to order some! Thank you for making the
absolute best drink in the world! 🙂
Liked the artical in Saveur Mag. Sound as an
authentic extreeme drink. I love coffee , I
love a good soda. Great idea
My boyfriend and I love Manhattan Specials...We
buy it all the time...After a hard days work we
both have a tall glass and relax watching tv.
His daughter also loves it and we're going to get
her a t-shirt... 🙂 I told my boyf I would make
it my self and he said....It will never be the
same...lol so count us in on always being a
customer of "Manhattan Special" Original. I also
enjoy a bottle when I'm out and about...
Love "Manhattan Special" Fans lol
My wife and I were first introduced to the
Manhattan Special back in 2001 when we visited
family in Newburgh, NY. We were at an Italian
food store (cannot remember name) and noticed the
carbonated espresso drink. Naturally, we had to
try it - long story short, we loved it... AND
WANTED MORE! However, we could not find a
retailer in Maryland where we currently live. The
only time we're able to enjoy the Manhattan
Special is to have family ship it down to us,
which is very seldom. Our fingers are crossed
that maybe someday, the espresso drink can be sold
in our area.
Thank you for creating such a fabulous and much
needed beverage.
I remember when you couldn't find Manhattan
Special anywhere outside the neighborhood. Those
were the days when after playing punch ball in
Mt. Carmel's yard, or kick the can on the corner
on North 8th and Havemeyer or swimming in
McCarren park pool, we went to Pat's Candy Store,
put a dime in the Jukebox and open an iced cold
bottle of Manhattan Special from the soda box for
15 cents! Now you can find it most anywhere and
those memories all come back to me everytime I
take that first sip! jpn77@hotmail.com
I remember back in 1968 a Staten Island pal Tony
Fedele and I were in Fords, NJ. We stopped in an
Italian deli and he ordered (in Sicilian) a
sangwich of Capicola, Prosciutto, Provolne,
lettuce, tomato, onions, oil & vinegar and trow
on some sweet hot peepers too! Then he picked up
a bottle of MANHATTAN SPECIAL. "Make mine the
same as his" I said to the clark (in English)
behind the counter and today in 2008 I have my
Grand Daughter Juliette doing likewise. Itsa
niiiice!
i've been drinking manhattan special since the
60's. Now I've passed on to family & friends a
wonderful way to have iced coffee. 3/4 mahattan
special, and three or four ice cubes & the rest
with evaporated milk. any brand. my daughther
says its better then starbucks. try it, i love
it. quality control will agree
Hey..I'm from the old neighborhood. I use to walk
home from PS132 ( just a couple of blocks from MS )
and watch your machines do their bottle wash and
then fill. It was cool to watch production as a
child. I love the product, but now that I'm out of
the neighborhood it hard to find, And yes I'm
spoiled !
" Before Starbucks,
there was....
"MANHATTAN SPECIAL"
Wow, I was introduced to this at our
local "Italian" restaurant here in East Texas -
what a wonderful surprise and delightful taste.
Keep up the good work.
Betsy Wright
i have nothing but great things to say!!!

this drink. my friend in england counts down the
days until he gets back to new york and we take
an igloo cooler w/ manhattan special in it for
him when he gets off the plane.thanks for a
great product have a great day!!!
Got the whole family hooked on this drink. Even
my 2 year old !

I'm a Bostonian and my daughter lives in Brooklyn.
I came across Manhattan Special in a deli in
Carroll Gardens and bought a single bottle which I
drank on the spot. It was fabulous...never tasted
a drink (other than beer) that I liked better. So
I found a small Italian market down the street and
bought a case.
Now every time I'm in Brooklyn, I buy at least a
dozen quarts to share with friends back here in
Boston. My next door neighbor grew up in Brooklyn
and her husband is from Kenya...they love the
stuff and are always asking me when I'm going to
Brooklyn. Followed up with: "and can you bring
back some coffee soda?"
i love this drink, i can't live without it!!!
I grew up in Brooklyn, Carroll Street, between
Clinton & Court. Anyway, Manhattan Special was
a staple for "us kids in the neighborhood".
We'd go to Pete's Candy Store on Court & 1st
Place, grab an ice cold Manhattan Special and a
bag of Wise Potato Chips and ahhh, heaven.
Nothing beat the two. I've taken the love of
Manhattan Special and passed it along to my
children and surprise, surprise, they are
enjoying the ice cold delicacy. As a matter of
fact, they enjoy even more than that pricey
other bottled "coffee specialty"...I do remember
at one point during my childhood that Manhattan
Special was introduced in cans, glad you brought
back the glass bottles when you did...Thanks for
keeping my childhood memories alive and for
creating new ones with my children.
This is "THE BEST" soda ever. Possible to order
on-line?
Keep up the great work!
I agree with everyone on the list! There is
nothing like a Manhattan Special (no diet for
me!) To all the friends I see on the list - it's
great to see all of your names and statements and
memories, incluyding drinking a nice cold one
together. My dad (Angelo) actually worked there,
and was on the MS bowling team! So of course, we
drank it like water! Especially living on Jackson
St! It's a little tougher to find in NJ, but I
have and still drink it whenever I can!!!!
Please stay in business!!
When I was a little girl, my father introduced
me to Manhattan Special. He used to go to the
Brooklyn bottling plant and buy cases upon cases
of it to share with all the paisans. Everytime
I drink it, the taste brings me back to a
wonderful, simpler time in my life.
Now I have passed the tradition onto my family.
I was waltzing through Mamaroneck and spotted my
beloved Manhattan Special at an Italian Deli- it
brought back great memories of having a cold one
on Nonna's stoop down on Adams Place!!
Do you sell this is Rhode Island??
pete from russell st i live only a few blocks
from your bottling co.been drinking manhattens
since i was a kid its still the best drink
around and makes a great gift
FOR ALMOST 50 YEARS A COUPLE OF ICE
COLD "MANHATTANS" ARE THE BEST DRINK THERE IS.
JUST AS IMPORTANT ARE THE THOUGHTS THAT COME TO
MIND, FROM THE PAST AND NOW. MY 1ST MANHATTAN
AT MY AUNT MARY'S CANDY STORE ON HAVERMEYER AND
N6TH ST. SHE HAD A BIG HEART. MY "UNCLE PETE"
WHO LIVED ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE FACTORY ON
MANHATTAN AVE LOVED THEM ICE COLD. MY UNCLE
MARIO WHO WAS THE BEST TURK ON THE BOAT IN THE
MOUNT CARMEL FEAST IN THE LATE 50'S EARLY 60'S.
IN THE SIXTIES, WATCHING MY DAD PLAY LEFTFIELD
AT THE "TENNIS COURTS" MCCARRAN
PARK, "JIMMINEAL" FROM THE NORTHSIDE. THE BEST
DRINK BRINGS BACK GREAT THOUGHTS OF MY UNCLE'S
AND AUNT WHO ARE IN A BETTER PLACE NOW. THANK
GOD, MY DAD IS STILL WITH ME, AND HE STILL HAS A
BETTER ARM THAN A FEW OF THE YANKEE OUTFIELDERS,
EVEN AT 80. ME AND MY 2 BROTHERS PETER AND
VINCENT ENJOY "MANHATTANS" ICE COLD LIKE UNCLE
PETE DID ALL THE TIME. "YEAH"
I was born and raised in williamsburg. as a kid
we able to get free samples...
... thank you for those memories.
anyway i live upstate and i just opened a new
restaurant and would like to carry the best so
tell me who is your local dist. in northern
dutchess county?
I lived in Brooklyn on Columbia St & Congress.
There used to be a Corner Store own by an Italian
couple named Mike & Jenny, who also happend to
make thier own wine in the basemen. hmmm anyway
I was about 7 to 8 yrs old when I started
drinking this wonderful beverage I am now 55yrs
old. Now I live in Florida & I am trying to find
a place where they sell the orginal so that I may
purchase some. If anyone out there knows of where
I can buy it please let me know. It would have to
be closed to Daytona Beach Airport.
vidarenaud@yahoo.com Thanks
I am in love. I need this delivered to my door!
The old neighborhood East Harlem,NYC was my 1st
exposure to Manhattan Special. We have all move
out but every year in August we come back for the
Feast of the Giglio www.eastharlemgiglio.com
A catered lunch is provided
for the Giglio Boys and along with the great
Italian food served one can find ice cold bottles
of Manhattan Special. Old traditions never die.
Born and raised in Manhattan and although we
were not allowed to have it all the time, as a
kid I grew up loving Manhattan Special soda.
After moving to Jersey I hadn't seen it for a
long time. Recently was happy to discover one
of our local stores is now selling it. Never
heard anyone say they didn't like it. Great soda!
I call it "holy Water". it's by far the best
drink on the planet,so don't change anything.
Everyone I introduce to this soda gets hooked
immediately.
After a great party in Williambsburg, we decided
to go for a couple of slices of pizza, that's
where I discovered Manhattan Special sodas! I
fell in love immediately! This stuff is amazing.
I'm always struggling with one diet or another.
Facts say that we may be thirsty and not hungry
when our stomachs signal an uncomfortable
feeling. Problem solved and losing weight
because I drink a glass of Manhattan Special
Diet Decaf with alittle fat-free half and half
and WOW!!! I'm full and on my way to safely
losing those unwanted pounds. Thank you for a
great drink
Very good coffee soda! You should make it
available in 2 liter bottles.
the diet manhattan expresso love it
My husband LOVES your product; we just wish we
could find it close to home--we see it in
Florida and Grand Cayman but not in South West
Connecticut often enough! Delicious and unique.
Our family has been drinking this soda since the
1920's or perhaps earlier. I recall the old
yellow & white label/graphic (changed a few
years back)with a man seated at a dinner table
and a woman standing over him, I think she was
pouring the soda for him......
This product is timeless and I am happy that
it's taste has never changed, even if the label
has. It is old New York.
I have been drinking Manhatten Special Coffee
soda since I was a little girl....I grew up with
Manhatten Special....loved it then as I still do
now....
oh my gosh!! i just tasted manhattan special
espresso soda for the first time! it is amazing!
then i made an ice cream float with it...holy
moley, amazing!
I'm 62 now and I been drinking MS for a little
over 50 years. My uncle had a small coffee shop
in the old First Ward section of Newark. He had
a soda cooler in front filled with ice. I
remember the Nehi's and of course the MS which
was my favorite then and now. Funny thing is, I
don't like or drink regular hot coffee. I
remember the old bottles with the red
printing/paint on the bottle itself.
Just had the espresso soda - Great!
I'm gonna go nag a little specialty store to get
this stuff!
Tried the Espresso Soda for the first time today
and I am totally hooked! Can't wait to substitute
my morning hot coffee for it this summer and I
have a ton of cocktail recipes already milling in
my head. Doesn't a Caramel Machiatini sound
delicious?
My wife and I discovered the Coffee Espresso Soda
today and we are hooked. Can't wait to drink it again.
THAT GREAT TASTING COFFEE DRINK WAS ALWAYS ON
OUR SUNDAY DINNER TABLE. WALKING PASSED THE
BOTTLING PLANT ON MY WAY TO PS#23 SMEELING THE
AROMA OF THE ROASTED COFFEE WAS A THING I"LL
NEVER FORGET. I LIVED ON SKILLMAN AVE. BETWEEN
LORIMER AND LEONARD STREETS. I NOW LIVE IN
FLORIDA AND HAVE FOUND A PLACE THAT SELLS
MANHATTAN SPECIALSO NOW MY EVERYDAY MEALS AREA
MEMORY OF THE PAST. THANKS FOR THE PLEASURES
YOUR SODA BRINGS AND ALL SHOULD ENJOY IT.
Best Stuff on Earth!!
I just love the stuff!
I agree with my cousin. I love the stuff. Outside
of Sunday dinner, it is always great with a hot
lunch or a Pittsburg platter.
Manhattan special is my all time favorite. I
drink it instead of a cup of coffee in the
morning on my way out the door. I have introduced
it to all my friends at. They all love it too....
and they're a tough bunch, lol. I knew Manhattan
was special... but not this special, lol.
Keep up the good work.
I grew up in Brooklyn and Manhattan Special was
always part of our Sunday Dinners. It reminds me
of my cousin Michael's special pasta with
sausage. Thanks for the great memories.
Manhatan Special was my father's favorite drink.
Growing up- he use to let us have a "small" glass
of HIS drink. Even my grandfather loved it.
Now, I make a special trip to the Italian market
just for some old time memories. Manhattan
Special- making memories generation after
generation.
Your espresso coffee soda is wonderful! I had
been drinking a certain brand name "blak"
coffee/cola drink that I really liked, however I
have read that it is no longer being
manufactured. My husband searched grocery stores
for a comparable product and bought me your
Manhattan Special, which far surpasses any other
coffee drink! Thank you, you've got a customer
for life!
there is nothing like a manhattan special!!! I
hope this company stays around forever!
Growing up in Howard Beach, Queens, I have such
fond memories of ordering a Manhattan Special
along with a Sausage & Pepper Hero, at St.
Helen's Italain Feast. Now that was truly Heaven
on Earth. Thanks for the Sweet memories.
I have tried the manhattan special expresso soda
and the diet version. Theyre good and I like the
bottles they come in.
My family and I have been drinking manhattan special coffee soda
as long as I can remember. Our family lived right next door from
the factory and we would smell it all day long.It is definitely the
smell that brings me back to my childhood. Our Sunday dinners are
never complete without it. It's a staple in our home.
Thanks for the memories

This is the most amazing soda I have ever
tasted! I love espresso and when I found this
soda I was amazed that a company would combine
the flavor with a soda.
If you are an espresso drinker or just want to
try something new, this beverage satisfys your
craving.
As a little girl born in Queens my father every
Sunday would give all of my brothers and sisters
Manhattan Special to drink,this was a special
treat for us.I still have the first empty bottle
that he gave me my first drink about 25years
ago.Still pick up a supply of Manhattan Special
when we make our trips to New York.Thank you for
a great delicious coffee soda drink.
I used to live in Brooklyn until 1974 when I
moved to Pennsylvania. I come back every year to
visit my family and always have Manhatten Special
and fresh mozzarella, two of my favorite things
from home.
My family has lived around the corner
from "Manhattan special" for 100 years. As a
young girl, every week when we would visit
grandma and granpa, the first thing my dad did
when we walked in the house was open the fridge
and grab 2 Manhattan Specials, one for him and
one for my brother and I to split. Now, as an
adult, the first thing I do when I travel from
Florida to visit grandma is pop open a Manhattan
special. We were in Williamsburg for
Thanksgiving and we brought home a case....
Ah.... Such wonderful memories and such
wonderful soda.
The besttasting soda ever. I originally came from
New York. And I was craving the tast of Manhattan
Special. I finaly got some.
I've lived in Greenpoint Brooklyn all my life. As
far back as i can remember I've been drinking
Manhattan Special. Starbuck's!!fuggedaboutit!!!.
In my opinion they don't know squat about coffee.
up until recently I used to drive down to Florida
at least once a year. I would stock up on
Manhattan Special and keep it on ice in a cooler.
Whenever i would get a little drowsy from driving
your wonderful elixer did the trick. Thank you so
much for keeping a Brooklyn tradition alive.
I actually just came home from school and I just
couldnt resist. Here is what I think about
Manhattan Special.
Manhattan Special is thee best drink...I dub this
drink numero uno and it is without a doubt taken
from a river that only exist in heaven.
Thank you for this wonderful drink.
Okay folks it's getting close to Thanksgiving
don't forget to stock up on your Manhattan
Special for the Holiday LOL :}
I love this drink! Grazie!
Love the soda!
Found your Expresso Coffee Soda in Westerly, RI
in a small Gelato shop opened recently by
Italians from Brooklyn. Loved it & want to by it
in the "Big Apple".
Manhattan Special is the best!! Where could I
find it in Pennsylvania or New Jersey?
The Manhattan special's orange soda is the
best!!! All my friends and family love it!! We
have it on the holidays and with lunch and dinner!
It is also great on a hot summer day
I've been drinking Manhattan Special most of my
life. It is a wonderful treat! Thank You!
while at the river street deli in chattanooga
enjoying a sandwish made with boarshead deli meat
and a dr brown's cream soda, it also made me
think of another favorite of mine and my wife's A
COLD MANHATAN SPECIAL. WHERE CAN WE FIND SOME IN
CHATTANOOGA.
While making my deliveries on my route for
Farmland Dairies LLC, I spotted a bottle of
Expresso Coffee Soda in my customers cooler and I
was curious about the product so, I bought the
diet Expresso Coffee Soda and really enjoyed it.
I want to buy a case for home!
I just came back this weekend from visiting nyc
and brooklyn-boy-did I stock up on manhattan
special-I haven't had the soda in YEARS!!!! if
their isn't a retailer in knoxville tn can I
order some direct from you? drinking the soda
brought back soooo many fond memories-love your
product
On old highway 66 just out side of Arcadia Okla.
Down the road from the route 66 round top barn is
POPS. This cafe and store has hundreds of
different kinds of soda pop. This is where we
found your Espresso Coffee Soda. You have a great
product.
This Columbus Day weekend there is going to be
the First annual Italian Festival being held at
Father Copadanno Blvd. in Staten Island. I do bet
many who visit this guestbook will remember all
the great Italian Feast that were held in my old
South Brookyln neighborhood on Henry St. I do
remember that every where you looked you noticed
someone drinking Manhattan Special. Also on the
website South Brooklyn net, Manhattan Special is
mentioned many times in good taste. I do hope to
visit the Festival this weekend & of course have
my bottle of Manhattan Special.
I grew up in Brooklyn & have been drinking
Manhattan Specials since I was a kid. It always
brings back such great memories!! My father
always bought it and us kids LOVED it!! We used
to look so forward to going to my Grandmothers
house because she always had the small bottles
of Manhattan Special in her frig. I was so
excited when I recently found it in Stop n
Shop!! All the memories came back!
For years I have been a loyal drinker of your
Espresso Soda. Winter or Summer I have it in
the morning, as well as an occasional drink in
the evening too. I recently moved out of the
NYC area and cannot find it. I have my family
bring as many bottles as they can when they come
to visit. Thank you so much for your wonderful
product, which can't hold a candle to Starbucks!!
I have been drinking Manhattan Special since I
was seven years old, I called it coffee
soda...and just had one yesterday. I bought it at
Faicco's Pork Store in Greenwich Village, near
where I work. I grew up in soho, drank it there,
moved to eny brooklyn, drank it there, am now in
the bronx and buy/drink it every chance I get.
When I lived in soho, a neighbor had in-laws in
greenpoint, that was my first exposure to
manhattan avenue, hence the manhattan special is
named after the area is is bottled in, also i
think the Passaro family is still the owner. they
took the name off of the label, however. Keep up
the good work, the drink is a classic and still
delicious.
I just wanted to stop by and say Thank You! I
LOVE my Mahattan Specials!!! Can never get enough
I have drank Manhattan Special since I was a kid,
I have moved away to the south and still my
family in CT sends me bottles. Nothing is better
than a cold glass of the best coffee soda in the
world(my opinion). Thanks for a lifetime of good
memories and a great product.
I have been drinking Manhattan Special since I
was 12yrs or younger. My father introduce me to
this awesome drink. I moved to Michicgan and I
had to have my mother buy me a case when she
comes and visit me. I now live in Chicago and I
have been searching and searching for this
product. I introduce my girl friend to this
wonderful drink and she now bugs me about buying
it all the time.. I am hoping I can either buy it
around me or I can have a case of it shipped to
me. I love this drink!!
Hands down, the best coffee drinks money can buy.
I empty the supermarket shelves whenever I get
the chance, ad drive for miles looking for my
next "fix". Who needs Starbucks when you can have
a Manhattan Special.
I have been drinking Manhattan Special for as far
back as I can remember, I am now 54. I've lived
in Hoboken all my life and this has been a
Hoboken drink.
I'm happy to see it is now in our local Shoprite
and hope you continue providing it there. In
addition, since I cannot have sugar, I'm happy to
see a diet version, tastes just as good as the
original.
A happy drinker
Greetings from Austin, TX. I was up in Middletown, NY yesterday
picking up Manhattan Special to bring home to Texas with me. I
LOVE the giant bottles! You're the whole reason I drink coffee! My
husband and I are addicted to your soda, and we can't seem to find
it anywhere here. We can't get enough of the stuff! We hope you
sell it down here very soon, because you already have a great fan
base. God Bless the Manhattan Special! 🙂
Growing up in Canarsie "back in the day" a
Manhattan Special was a real treat. It was really
a big deal. I always have a case at barbecues and
parties. Always starts up some sort of
converstaion, people from Bklyn love it and
people from...somewhere else, make that wierd
face like they just dont get it!
I have been drinking you product for most of my
51 years. Since I moved to Pennsylvania it's hard
to find your product out here. I have to drive
back to good old Brooklyn, New York to get it. I
have to buy it by the case. You keep making your
great product, and I will keep driving to New
York to get it.
Growing up in New Jersey we made many trips into
New York just to purchase Manhattan Special.
To find it now so many years later = what can I
say - This is absolutely WONDERFUL. A real treat
for anyone who has never tasted it.
I work at a Super Foodtown (Big Supermarket) in
New Jersey and I bring Manhattan Special in and
we go through cases like crazy. Everybody that
used to live in Brooklyn that moved to Jersey go
crazy over it. The espresso soda is the best
thing I've ever tasted. Their soda's are
outstanding too! I'm still trying to bring the
Orange and Gassosa in, but they don't seem to
have it available 🙁 .. don't ever change your
recipe!! 16oz would be nice though 🙂
I just Love Manhatten Specials - especially
knowing that the taste has never changed and its
still family run.
Keep up the great taste!!
Whooow!! What have i been missin all these
years..MANHATTAN SPECIAL Espresso Coffee Soda. I
drive over the road in the Entertainment
Industry..doing a show out on Jones Beach when
one of my drivers show's up with a few bottles of
soda, i snagged one from him to bring back home
here in Nashville. I guess i'll be buying buy
the case from now on when i am back in the New
York area!! Makes Starbucks taste like weak
water!! Thanks for keepin me awake! Mark
For many years I have enjoyed the great flavor of
your espresso soda. It is a wonderful and
refreshing drink. As a special treat I top
Vanilla Ice cream with it and it is a wonderful
dessert idea. Please never change it's taste it
is great as it is and it will be enjoyed many
years from now by everyone who drinks coffee!
Growing up going to New York to visit my uncle,
my dad and i use to get your sodas all the time.
Most of the time they wouldn't last getting out
of the store because they are so good. I haven't
been to New York in awhile so My dad and I are
makeing a trip one weekend just to get a
MANATTAN SPCIAL.
The best I have to drink one a day or more....
good luck
I have been drinking Manhattan Special all my
life. While growing up in Coney Island, my
grandfather used to take me to the candy store
where he would buy me a "soda" and he would have
his "special Special". He would give me a sip
and every once in a while I could talk him into
buying me one too. Once I was old enough to cross
the strret on my own I would cross to the candy
store and buy my own. I still love them to this
day but living near Albany they are hard to
find. I especially like to pour some over
vanilla ice cream......or to all a little
additional flavoring (Tuaca). After all these
years it still tastes the same......thanks for
keeping up the quality. It is rare to find a
company willing to do that these days.
GREAT diet expresso coffeesoda
Nice
My Grandfather used to bring me to the corner
store on or near Fort Hamilton Parkway and 86th
St (early 70's), and we used to get a manhattan
special together. It was the best soda flavor
then and still is today. I can't wait to try the
cappucino flavor. Thank you for the memories!!
Ciao
