The cocktail, a trademark of the exclusive London club Movida, is made from Louis XII cognac, half a bottle of Cristal Rose champagne, brown sugar, bitters and a few chips of 24 carat edible gold leaf. But the bottom of the glass contains the most expensive surprise – an 11 carat diamond ring.

Two security guards were assigned to follow the drink from preparation stage right up until the last drop. A source told the Daily Mail, the buyer did not want to be named but said:

“He’s known in the royal circles.”

The 39-year-old singer added fuel to the gossip fires by moving a ring she was wearing on her index finger to her wedding finger to accommodate the sparkly new accessory before dancing with her gal pals to her popular single WOW.

Clearly enjoying her themselves at the crowded after party, Kylie Minogue and Aussie singer Natalie Imbruglia held a back-bending competition to see who was the most flexible.

“It was a close call. But Kylie probably won. It was all just for fun really,”

a party guest told the Daily Mail.
