Vodka and Rattlesnakes - in the same bottle

By Craig Schrolucke | Sunday, March 16, 2008, 10:00 AM

The Star Telegram is reporting that agents have seized more than 400 bottles of vodka from Bayou Bob’s Brazos River Rattlesnake Ranch in Texas.

While the homemade nature caught the attention of the agents it was the 10-inch rattlesnake in every bottle that made the investigators take notice.

TABC officials said alcohol containing snakes or scorpions is popular in Asian cultures. An Internet search found operations selling Thai scorpion vodka, cobra whiskey, giant centipede whiskey, herbal gecko lizard wine and Mekong River eel wine. “It’s very bizarre,” Cloud said. “We learned that these are believed to contain aphrodisiac properties. We heard that some people believe having a venomous animal creates hallucinations.” Star-Telegram.com

Is this really an aphrodisiac?
