MASHANTUCKET, Conn. -- Would you pay $3,000 for a martini?

Connecticut's Foxwoods Resort Casino is offering a new signature cocktail.

It's called the Sapphire martini and is made with Blue Curacao, Bombay Sapphire Gin, a splash of dry vermouth and is coated with blue sugar on the rim.

But it's not the booze that makes it so expensive.

Each Sapphire martini comes with a pair of custom-made blue sapphire and diamond earrings.

The casino isn't alone in offering ultra pricey drinks. The Algonquin Hotel's Blue Bar in New York offers a $10,000 diamond martini.

They have sold two since 2004.
