High Roller Martini

- The Capital Grille, Las Vegas
- Price Tag: $1,000
Although this cocktail is priced at $1000, you can at least be comforted by the fact that 1/2 of the money goes to the ‘Share Our Strength’ charity that fights world hunger.

This High Roller Martini shares its name with the famous Vegas Strip and comes complete with a diamond ring.
Mai Tai

- Merchant Hotel, Dublin
- Price Tag: $1,400
The bar at the Merchant Hotel, in Dublin, Ireland, holds the record for the most expensive cocktail. A Mai Tai costs $1400. Apparently it’s the vintage rum used to make this extravagant cocktail that makes it so special. This J. Wray Nephew, 17 year old rum is the same spirit that was used to create the first Mai Tai in 1944. There are said to be only six bottles of this Jamaican Rum in the world and the bottle at the Merchant Hotel is kept in the safe at night.
Platinum Passion

- Price Tag: $1,500
This exotic cocktail is made with L’Esprit de Courvoisier, and includes the syrup of passion fruit, forest berries, wildflower honey, brown sugar, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Ruinart Champagne is the last crucial ingredient, and this cocktail comes complete with an orchid inside the glass.
Sapphire Martini in the Mezz

- Foxwoods Resort Casino, Connecticut

Diamond Cocktail

- Piano Bar at the Sheraton Park Tower Hotel, London
- Price Tag: $4,350
This cocktail is made from Charles Heidsieck Vintage 2001 champagne and Remy Martin Louis XIII cognac, and includes Angostura bitters and a sugar cube. The final price tag here is determined by the piece of jewelery that you would like to have presented in the drink. $4,350 will buy you a 0.6 carat diamond, but that price could go up to $19,000 if you are interested in something a little “pricier”.
Martini on The Rock

- Algonquin Hotel, New York
- Price Tag: $10,000
Maybe you would just prefer something a bit more elegant? This Martini on the Rock is a classy little cocktail and it goes for the special price of $10,000. The only “rock” here is a 1.5 carat diamond from the hotel jeweler at the Algonquin Hotel, New York. This special concoction is said to be a real thirst quencher for the ladies.

cool article, but those are the most overpriced drinks on earth. Money could be spent in a much more worthwhile manner.

Good article, nice pics. I kind of think it’s cheating on the part of those bars that have drinks over $1000, but it is because there is jewelery in the drink. While I’m sure a new diamond necklace would be nice, will the staff wash the sugar, angostura bitters and booze off it for me?
