That's 3 Snake Wine! An ex-boyfriend of mine found some of that when he was doing a moving job for a Chinese restaurant. The proprietor told him it would make him sexually attractive and so he drank some of it. Maybe it worked, I sure thought he was hot. Dude! That's 3 Snake Wine!

There's a video of the foul mouthed TV Chef and one of the Top Gear guys drinking the stuff. I posted it over on my forum; let me see if I can find it. Here it is: http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=VKEPPw5Jd2M I'd love to try the stuff just to say I had, but the quality of the liquor is I'm sure absolute crap. The REALLY fowl stuff (pun intended) is some nordic or icelandic or inuit cultures (apologies, I don't remember which) actually put birds into bottles. That's very dangerous - much higher likelihood of contamination. The other animals aren't really that big of a deal. It's incredibly common in those cultures.
