Here is a kick ass video of a dude making a sweet piece out of a Corazon Tequila bottle. You can buy a glass drill bit at Home depot for about $12. I went to the head shop and bought a stem first to make sure I bought the proper size bit.

Make sure when drilling you keep the bottle still and use towels to reduce vibration. Also practice first on crap bottle with thick glass b4 you try to use a prime bottle.

Good Luck

using a a torch with map gas or propane will work to melt the glass. But I used to make bongs out of liqour bottles, I bought a bit designed for drilling in to glass at homedepot. It was like 13$, and yes keep water on the bit and where your drilling and it should work fine...

Lead glass is not in any way harmful and is really crystal not glass.. Some folk will believe anything.
Use a diamond tip drill.
Gently exert pressure on the glass and you should have no problems.

Can the lead in lead crystal harm you?

Lead crystal will not harm your food or drink (or you). The only way that the lead in crystal can affect its contents is if you are storing alcohol in lead crystal decanters for an extended period of time. Although there have not been a large number of health issues relating to the lead in crystal, companies and manufacturers do recommend that you only keep alcohol in lead crystal decanters for up to 3 months.

What is the difference between glass and lead crystal?

Glass is an organic substance consisting of a mixture of silicates, barates or phosphates that cools to a rigid condition without crystallization. (It can be made of quartz-sand, lime, soda, potash and lead oxide.) Crystal falls into the 3 main categories. Fine Crystal or Crystalline is made from a glass mixture that contains 6% - 10% lead oxide. Lead Crystal is made from a glass mixture that contains 10% - 24% lead oxide and Full Lead Crystal is made from a glass mixture that contains 24% lead oxide or more. For the most part, crystal by European standards regards 24% lead bearing glass as crystal. However, by American standards, any glass that is perfectly clear is considered crystal regardless of the lead content. Lead oxide in crystal gives the product clarity and sparkle. Any crystal that is hand-cut usually must be 24% lead oxide or over - otherwise the crystal would be too brittle and would break when cut or engraved.

Use a diamond bit, you can get a whole set on ebay under $10. Use a dremel or a drill. Water will make it cut faster and cool the bit. If you use a dremel at a high speed with out water, you will melt the nickel plating, which is holding your diamonds in place. Then, you can throw that bit away.
