Sword Martinis Jambu’s Bar in the Raffles Resort Canouan Island, Grenadines $300 You could buy a souvenir T-shirt. Or you could bring home a 14-karat gold handmade sword the size of a swizzle stick. The resort offers four different “theme” martinis, each armed with its corresponding sword, from samurai to Excalibur. Real collectors’ items, or as one customer put it: “very expensive toothpicks.” The Ritz Sidecar Bar Hemingway Hotel Ritz, Paris $515 This is the actual birthplace of the sidecar, a drink that was created to take the chill off for a regular customer who arrived by motorcycle with sidecar. Former keeper of the Guinness World Record for the most expensive cocktail, it starts with extremely rare 1865 Ritz Reserve cognac, made from grapes that were on the vine before the devastating phylloxera infestation of the 1860s. Only a few bottles remain. Bentley Sidecar The London NYC New York $550 This drink isn’t on the menu at this swank midtown bar, but it’s available upon request. Beverage manager Duncan Halden calls his “a luxe English twist” on the classic drink from the Paris Ritz. It features Hennessy Ellipse super premium cognac--poured from a decanter, which is specially designed by Tomas Bastide, a designer at Baccarat--and Grand Marnier 150. High Roller Martini The Capital Grille, Las Vegas $1,000 This pinstripe restaurant chain boasts a $1000 martini for each of its 27 locales, each paired with a different piece of Lagos jewelry. The Gotham Martini comes with a strand of pearls; The High Roller, named for the Vegas Strip, includes a diamond pave ring. For each cocktail sold, about $500 goes to Share our Strength, a charity that battles hunger around the globe. Mai Tai The Merchant Hotel Belfast $1,400 In beverage manager Sean Muldoon's possession? A bottle of Wray & Nephew 17-year-old rum that was a key ingredient for “Trader Vic” Bergeron’s original Mai Tai. Six bottles are in circulation but only this one is available for public consumption. Hurry up--there’s enough rum in the bottle to prepare 18 cocktails and three have been served to date. "Martini-on-the-Rock" The Blue Bar Algonquin Hotel, New York $10,000 Vodka or gin? Olive or twist? Emerald-cut or Marquise? This is one martini you must order 72 hours in advance so that you may pre-select your diamond and setting. Only two have been ordered since the drink’s launch in 2004. One for a segment on NPR and the other for a marriage proposal (the answer was a resounding “yes” ). -rockon I drink stuff like this everyday cuz im baller -cool2

WORLD'S MOST EXPENSIVE BEER A New Zealander paid $2,595.00 USD for a beer in a Hong Kong bar. He must have had one too many and thought the credit card slip read $2.45 when he signed it, but he claims the bar tampered with the bill. Nevertheless his credit card company did not reverse the charges and the man only known as Mr. B paid $2,595.00 for a beer.
