It’s top-shelf and top-of-the-line.
An exclusive restaurant in Miami sent many into a spiral after revealing a cocktail that comes with a $33,000 price tag — and a Birkin bag.
Content creator Mister Lewis asked a server what the most expensive drink on the menu was at Papi Steak in Miami Beach.
A cocktail at Papi Steak in Miami costs $33,000 and comes with a Birkin bag. Instagram/papisteakThe drink, called “It’s Not a Bag, It’s a Cocktail,” features a cocktail consisting of Belvedere 10 Vodka, grapefruit oil saccharum, and Lillet Blanc with a peach garnish and side of caviar — served inside a Birkin bag.
However, the ritzy drink doesn’t have to come with the Birkin. The cocktail alone costs $150 — pennies compared to the $33,000 charge with the classy clutch.
The video quickly went viral, with many noting that this hefty drink might be “somehow the easiest way to get a Birkin.”
A Birkin bag, which is considered the “one of the most coveted objects of recent decades,” is notoriously hard to get — and due to its exclusivity, people tend to spend thousands on thousands of dollars on other Hermès products before they can even think about getting a Birkin.
That’s because while technically anyone can ask a sales associate about the elite bag, Hermès reserves it for a limited amount of select customers, typically those who have a repeat purchase history with the brand.
“Does Hermès know they are offering Birkins with cocktails now? So much for exclusive and elevated,” another commenter quipped.
The cocktail is served in a Birkin bag. Instagram/papisteakAnother claimed that ordering the drink to get the Birkin “is actually smart, he probably got a Birkin for cheaper and is making profit of it.”
While Hermès doesn’t list the retail prices of Birkin bags, according to Sotheby’s, the smallest one, the Birkin 25, costs $12,100 for a Togo leather bag at brand boutiques in the United States, while the Birkin 30 in Togo leather costs $13,300.
However, secondary market prices tend to range between $28,000 and $30,000 for one bag, though it depends on the model and material — and some can exceed $100,000.

Instagram/papisteakMeanwhile, some commenters on Lewis’ video are skeptical that the Birkin bag given at the restaurant — a venue beloved by celebrities such as Ivanka and Tiffany Trump, Leonardo DiCaprio, Sofia Vergara and Hailey Bieber — is even real.
“Anyone else think the bag they’re serving it in is the fake one, and the real one is in the box? Why would they fill a real f–king Birkin with drinks? Lol,” one questioned.
Tiffany Trump celebrated her 27th birthday at Miami’s Papi Steak in 2020. Instagram/davideinhorn“Bag made in China for about 80 dollars,” another claimed.
“The Birkin is fake … this bag on the video doesn’t have the Hermès logo … look up pics before you guys all go crazy,” someone alleged.
“That’s not even a Birkin, it’s a dupe. No logo or anything on the bag,” another eagle-eyed user pointed out.
But as one user smartly summed it up, patrons are getting a “$10 drink [and a] $32,990 bag.”
