What Goes into a $2,000 Martini?
In Las Vegas, the city of ultimate extravagances, when you're on a roll, you might be tempted to order a $2,000 martini at Body English, a club at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino. What could make this worth $2,000? Other than getting caught up in a mad moment, or trying to impress, or indulging yourself because you deserve it, maybe you're really interested in what goes into it.
It's called The Aristocrat Martini, and has three main ingredients - Remy Martin Louis XIII Cognac, 150 year old Gran Marnier, and a splash of Dom Perignon.
To mix - chill 2 ounces of Louis XIII and 1/2 to 3/4 Gran Marnier 150, pour into a martini glass, then top with Dom. Served with a ruby and diamond encrusted swizzle stick that's yours to keep when finished - and voilà, that will be $2000 to your hostess.
Of course, word has it that one of the Hilton sisters has indulged in an Aristocrat - Martini, that is.
