Snake Wine & Scorpion Wine (Vietnam Liquor)

When I first informed, it was came to me like surprising shadow and I just storming my brain what the hell happening around us. Possibly, you already can imagine from the title what I going to describe here and there is no doubt that you will be surprised if you did not get the news before.
Snake 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.

As I mentioned before Snake wine and Scorpion wine are Asian beverages that can be found in some Southeast Asian countries. To prepare this incredible beverage a cobra snake and 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 (sometimes it includes some other species too). 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.

As I known earlier, this drink is firstly consumed in China. Many types of snake drinks can be found all across Asia, but the most famous one and the only original one can be found in Vietnam, Thailand, and Laos, the famous Snake wine.
