The vodka, which contains 24-carat edible gold leaves, two South Sea pearls and a one-carat diamond, will be on sale on the upcoming Valentines Day for 489,000 pesos ($ 11,000) per bottle, according to Araneta.

Would alcohol ruin the pearl? I bet it's not even AAA. Just mix expensive, luxury items together and someone will buy just for the heck of it, because they have the money to spend.
