That's how I've always seen it done too.

In Belgium, there's something called the 'Krakelingenfeest' (a Krakeling is a very small kind of fish, maybe half an inch long; 'feest' is a feast or festivity) where these small fish are put into wine and folks drink the lot with the fish still alive. Is a tradition that stems from 2000 years ago.

I doubt they were very tasty, too small for one thing.
