Piaget has put together a collection of cocktail-inspired cocktail rings.  I'm particularly a fan of the slice of lime on the Mojito and the straw, set with diamonds of course, in the "Blue Ocean"  In their facebook app for the collection (sigh) they've even included recipes, which I've transcribed here ('s' in the recipe means shot).
