A pricy cocktail

From Newsday:

First there was the $29 burger. Now there’s the $125 cocktail. That would be the prickly pear margarita served at the Dos Caminos restaurants in the Flatiron district and SoHo. It’s made with Triple Sec, hand-squeezed lime, a dash of fresh cactus-pear puree and a premium aged tequila called 1800 Collecion.

“It’s not listed on the bar menu, but we sell a surprising number of them,” said Eben Klemm, director of cocktail development for Dos Caminos.

Still, for a mixed drink these days, $10 to $15 is no longer considered all that high.

$125 for a cocktail!?!?! You’ve gotta be frieking kidding me!

$10-$15 for a cocktail is a rip off in and of itself!

I think this is simply absurd///
