FlipNomad’s Photo Thursday – Snake Wine

One thing that I love about visiting markets is seeing interesting products, and one of the most interesting products that I’ve seen in my travels is Snake Wine. Snake wine is an alcoholic beverage with a whole snake in it and it’s said to have been originated in China.

Some Chinese believes that drinking Snake wine helps reinvigorate our body systems.

This particular photo though is taken in Luang Prabang market (Laos) and they added a scorpion in it. some bottles have lizards and other small animals together with a snake.

I have not personally tasted snake wines before and doubts if I’ll ever try it. Have you tried drinking Snake Wines? What does it taste like?

  1. I’ve tasted all kinds of wine but not one with a snake in it LOL.

  2. You can call me weak but I just had goosebumps imagining if I were to drink this :|

  3. I have a bottle and it tastes really bad. like licorice and formaldehyde

Speak Your Mind
