Alla ricerca di un lavoro, il giovane e ambizioso Brian Flanagan, dopo aver fallito nel campo della finanza e della pubblicità accetta un posto da barista in un modesto locale. Convinto dal suo collega Doug che è più redditizio fare il barman che l'agente di borsa, Brian mette a punto un gustoso cocktail, facendo diventare i due i beniamini dei ricchi di Manhattan, trasformando il loro lavoro in vere e proprie performances da spettacolo.
