Snakebite is a mixed drink of Lager and Cider, there are places in the Tintin universe where it could probably be mixed for you. But the question is where was this 'cocktail' definitely available?

The location will suffice and the book!

It's - quite unusually - stored in a barrel behind the bar in Ye White Hart, on page 36 of The Black Island.

They're probably expecting a stag party to show up at anytime! :-)

Correct Richard!

I figure either Herge or the translators wasn't actually aware what the drink was! I doubt anyone would buy it pre-mixed
