Guests at a London bar were hoping it wasn't their round after a £5,500 cocktail was mixed by a leading drinks expert.

Salvatore Calabrese broke the record for the world's most expensive cocktail with his 'Salvatore's Legacy' drink which was made up of ingredients more than 200 years old.

Salvatore, whose nickname is 'The Maestro', made the costly concoction using 1778 Clos de Griffier Vieux Cognac, 1770 Kummel Liqueur, Dubb Orange Curacao circa 1860 and two dashes of Angostura Bitters circa 1900s.

I heard Puffy poured some out for his homie Biggy.

 

RIP Biggy.

 

Seriously, why would you mix a 200+ y.o. cognac with anything.

For those spirits does it matter if the bottle was opened in some point in time or do you think these were unopened?

that is exactly what went through my mind... 'what a waste...' drink them separately, for God's sake.
