15,250 pounds for a glass of cocktail and 7,500 pounds for a tea bag:


The most expensive cocktail in the world contains a diamond ring instead of an olive! The drink, created by Harvey Nichols in Manchester, should be escorted to diner’s tables by security guards. The fabulous drink contains a six and a half carrot pink tourmaline and diamond ring set in 18-carrot white gold.
The drink was the invention of senior barman Jay Malik, 24, who was asked to devise a drink to fit with the restaurant’s Pink Dinners month. A special safe has been brought in the bar to keep the rings in and customers can choose any one they want from the wide range of rings - the most expensive one - two-carrot engagement ring a 27,000 pounds sterling.

To celebrate PG Tips 75th birthday (Brooke Bond), Boodles jewellers produced a 7,500 pounds tea bag. It took three months to make and has been hand-crafted with 280 diamonds. Pete Harbour, spokesman for PG Tips has said: “As it’s our 75th birthday, we wanted to do something special to remind people just how much they love the great British cup of tea.”
