Will you drink this tonight…said the Scorpion to the Snake (originally posted NY Day 2011)

January 1, 2016 by evebushman

On an Internet search for “New Year’s Wine” I got a gander of snake and scorpion rice wines from Vietnam.  Dying, no, itching, no, wondering, has anyone had this before?

big-snake-wine-bottles-liquorSnake wine and Scorpion wine are Asian beverages that can be found in some Southeast Asian countries such as Vietnam, Thailand, Laos Cambodia, but also in Korea and Japan.


To prepare this incredible beverage a cobra snake or some scorpions are put into a bottle fulfilled with transparent rice wine liquor and some herbs are added before the drink is left to ferment for months.


The venomous cobra snake used to make Snake wine is preserved to have the snake poison dissolved in the rice wine, but because snake venoms are protein-based they are inactivated by the denaturing effects of ethanol, and no more dangerous, but this makes a healthy liquor with many health benefits.


Many types of snake drinks can be found all across Asia, but the most famous one and the only original one is the one found in Vietnam, Thailand, and Laos, the famous Snake wine that you can only find online on our website.
