Across the channel, the English are hearkening to Waterloo with their Diamond Cocktail in the Piano Bar at London's Sheraton Park Tower Hotel. The drink is a champagne cocktail featuring Charles Heidsieck Vintage 2001 champagne and Remy Martin Louis XIII cognac (a blend of cognacs — some of which are more than 125 years old — that retails for $1,750 per bottle) mixed with three drops of angostura bitters and poured over a sugar cube and your choice of diamonds or rubies. Selecting a 0.6 carat diamond will produce a £2,300 ($4,350) drink, "but we could go up to £10,000 if a customer would like to choose such a gemstone" says the bar's assistant manager, Theodore Garcia.

Last year, a bottle of Glenfiddich Rare Collection 1937 (one of only 61 the cask yielded) fetched a jaw-dropping $20,000 at auction in New York.
But it's not just save-them-for-a-special-occasion bottles being bought. At the Old Homestead steak house in the Borgata Hotel Casino and Spa in Atlantic City, N.J., they’re pouring the 1926 Macallan Fine & Rare at $3,300 a dram. The bottle would cost $38,000 retail, but none is left to sell. You can, however, still buy Macallan’s "step down" Scotch: the Macallan Fine & Rare Collection 1939, for a mere $10,125.

Tutankhamen Brew:
The recipe of this brew is prepared according to the recipe and brewing method discovered by a team of University of Cambridge archaeologists/Egyptologists in the Queen Nefertiti's Temple of the Sun in Egypt. The brewery found in the corner of the said temple is believed to have been built by King Akhenaton who is King Tutankhamen's father. This is also the place where King Akhenaton queen, Nefertiti worshiped.
The archaeologists sought expert advice from Scottish and Newcastle Breweries, Edinburgh and the beer is brewed in the Cambridge laboratory, costing around $52 per bottle. The production is also limited and the edition is also numbered.
