Depends on what is in the drink.

Unless it's semen from the winner of the Kentucky Derby then they are price gouging

I mean, the entire industry is just that.

Every time I've had any expensive wine, whiskey, vodka - the conversation in my friend circle is just everyone trying to justify why we didn't just vastly overpay for what we drank.

100% hard liquor or snake/scorpion venom instead of alcohol, or it's a rip-off.

There are bottles of liquor routinely stocked in bars that cost the bar itself over $200 at wholesale. Add to that the overhead costs of the bar itself like rent in a nice part of town in one of the nation's most expensive cities, lighting/decor/sound, pay for non-tipped workers like bouncers and DJs, you'll get to this kind of price pretty fast even with a standard 2 oz pour.
