"  Cocktails have been getting more and more complicated recently, with specialty bars going all out to please food and drink buffs. The latest trend, however, is causing patrons to empty their pockets for alcohol that has spent a very long time sitting on a shelf.

Some are even willing to shell out $890 for a shot of 100-year-old whiskey.  For example, savvy guests at Detroit&amp;#039;s The Oakland will ask for the secret menu of drinks called &amp;quot;Priceless Spirits.&amp;quot; A shot can range from $10 to $150, but they all have one thing in common: the alcohol (like a 1940s Chartreuse Yellow or a 1921 rye whiskey) is extremely old. Or there&amp;#039;s the Canon in Seattle, where a 1944 shot of Santa Cruz Gold Label rum goes for $585 a shot.
