A village in Vietnam is producing snake and scorpion wine and shipping it worldwide.
The venomous cobra snake is used to make the snake wine. This picture shows how the snake is preserved to have its poison dissolve in the rice wine. Because snake venoms are protein-based, they are inactivated by the denaturing effects of ethanol, and thus are no more dangerous. Instead, the liquor is considered healthy and seemingly has many health benefits.
