Snake wine (??, pinyin: shéjiu; ru?u r?n in Vietnamese) is an alcoholic beverage produced by infusing whole snakes in rice wine or grain alcohol. The drink was first recorded to have been consumed in China during the Western Zhou dynasty and considered an important curative and believed to reinvigorate a person according to Traditional Chinese medicine.[1] It can be found in China, Vietnam and throughout Southeast Asia.

Those damn Chinese and their damn medicines. They also have some kind of liquor with a turtle in it (similar to tequila with a worm)

I would try it. Having it sit on my shelf would be pretty cool to look at.

It makes my palms sweaty just looking at the picture. One of my wife's coworkers has one from when she went to asia for deployment and told us about it.

You know, on second thought, this might be one of those things that I would want to avoid. Reptiles can carry some pretty nasty bacteria.

Would drinking it end my Santa problems? If so, yes.

When the bottle was empty, Liu decided to refill it with more alcohol. When she opened the lid, the snake started to breath, then wriggled and sprang out, biting her finger.
Liu was hospitalized for inflammation from the bite but is otherwise doing fine. The snake’s condition was not specified.
This wasn’t the first time a snake survived in snake wine. In 2009 a snake that had been preserved for two months bit a Chinese villager. In 2001, a snake killed a villager in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.
