May 2 - A Japanese cocktail is stirring memories of the Bubble Economy era, with a pricetag of $15,000.

The glass may be filling again in the Land of the Rising Sun with the "diamond-tini", a potent potable with a hint of lime and chilled vodka served over a 1.06-carat stone at Tokyo's Ritz-Carlton.

Soundbite: Bernard Viola, Hotel Manager, Ritz-Carlton Tokyo Midtown

Dan Sloan reports.

If SWIM had the money, he thinks it'd be cool to buy it, then proceed to down it in front of everyone within 1 minute...

Or....slip the guy who ordered it a note after he drinks it. Written on the note: Now order a round of these for the house. Your drink was poisoned. You will be given the antidote if you do as you are told.

Wonder if that is the same hotel with the gold and diamond bathroom in one of the suites? Apparently someone has more money than sense. 15K for a drink, damn, and they call drug users irresponsible.
