Martini garnished with Diamonds

diamond martiniThis new called "diamond-tini" is garnished with a 1.06-carat sparkler and a registered price tag of $15,000, according to Reuters reports. Guests at the Ritz-Carlton in Tokyo can now order a cocktail that is made from this item.

Bernard Viola, the hotel's manager told the Reuters News service. "It's a timeless drink and diamonds are a girl's best friend, so you combine both this time of year in Japan when proposals are rampant."

This extravagant vodka martini is prepared for tableside to a serenade of the Shirley Bassey hit "Diamonds Are Forever." The diamond garnish is later set in a ring by the local jeweler.

No diamond-tinis have been sold yet, but Viola is confident that the hotel's bartenders will be able to sell at least three a month.

"There is a market for everything you create," he said. "Today it is all about luxury."
