Mouse wine
Another speciality in China and also Korea, mouse wine is made by infusing rice wine with baby mice. It’s made by dropping live two-day-old mice into a bottle and leaving them to ferment for roughly a year. It is considered a health tonic. It’s thought to be a particularly effective remedy for asthma, as well as liver diseases, and is said to taste not unlike gasoline. After the wine has been drunk, the mice are often eaten.
