Snake wine is an alcoholic beverage that includes a whole venomous snake
in the bottle. It originated in Vietnam and can be found around
Southeast Asia . The snakes, preferably venomous ones, are usually not
preserved for their meat. They are preserved to have the snake poison
dissolved in the liquor. However, because snake venom is protein-based,
they are unfolded and therefore inactivated due to the influence of the
denaturing effects of ethanol.
A large venomous snake can be placed into a glass jar of rice wine, often with many smaller snakes, turtles, insects, or birds, and left to steep for many months. The wine is drunk as a restorative in small shots or cups
Body fluids of snake are mixed into wine and consumed immediately in the form of a shot. Snake blood wine is prepared by slicing a snake along its belly and draining its blood into a mixing vat with rice wine or grain alcohol. Snake bile wine is done through a similar method by using the contents of the gall bladder. Snake meat, liver, and skin can be prepared to accompany the drinks.
