Would you like a rattlesnake with your vodka?

Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission agents seized 411 bottles of illegal hooch on Thursday at Bayou Bob's Brazos River Rattlesnake Ranch in Palo Pinto County.

But it wasn't your typical variety of moonshine: the bottles of vodka also contained 10-inch rattlesnakes.



"In my 20 years with the TABC, I've never seen anything like it," Sgt. Charlie Cloud said.

"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."
