7 Weird Cures for Hangovers
I have to say I’m not happy to be doing this post… but this morning we’re going to talk about hangovers! Wanna hear about my night? All I can say is that blue lagoon matches my eyes…
I was looking for something to make my head stop spinning and I came across some very funny stuff. So, I’ll let real cures for hangovers for another time when I can think strait, and I’ll tell you what some people resort to when they’re desperate.
- Jack Rabbit Tea
What is this? Rabbit droppings! Cowboys in the Wild West woke up to a cup of hot water with rabbit dung after a night of whiskey. Talk about bad breath… - Bird Beaks and Tree Sap
I bet they’ll be sorry!
The ancient Assyrians drank a potion made from swallow beaks and myrrh oil to cure the symptoms of a night of booze. My theory is that the first bird to sing in the morning and wake the foggy worrier was the first to lose its beak. Sounds more like a revenge drink rather than a real cure…
- Deep Fried Canary
As long as we’re talking about birds, let’s not forget to mention the Ancient Romans who cooked these cheerful birds in a pot of oil after a night of orgies. This just proves that if you’re a bird and you get the feeling there’s been partying that night, for god’s sake, shut up and fly away! - Voodoo Hexes
Drink to chase the demon out of you!
New Orleans has a really interesting approach when it comes to curing hangovers. They sell a drink that’s supposed to be some kind of potion that kills the demon that weakens your body. You have to do some rituals like sticking 13 needles in the cork of the bottle.
- Pickle Juice
Not as strange as fried canary, but still not a delight! Could you start your day with some pickle juice in your cocktail glass? - Pickled Sheep’s Eye
No! This is not a metaphor for anything! In Mongolia hangovers were treated with a potion made of pickled sheep’s eye in tomato juice. I understand the poor birds were noisy… but I can’t imagine what the sheep did… - Bull’s Penis
I saved the best for last, or should I say saved the weirdest for last? Sicilians believed that consuming dried bull’s sex organs was enough to banish any trace of a hangover. As far as strange cures are concerned, I believe this one takes the cake!
So if your heaving stomach and aching head is giving you a hard time, just think about the alternatives! You’ll feel better in no time!
Hi, Everything dynamic and very positively! 🙂

Thank you.
I’m glad you agree!
I want to show my appreciation to the wrteir for bailing me out of this particular problem. After checking throughout the world-wide-web and finding things which were not beneficial, I believed my life was done. Existing without the approaches to the problems you’ve sorted out as a result of your main website is a critical case, as well as the ones which might have in a wrong way damaged my career if I hadn’t come across your website. Your primary mastery and kindness in dealing with every aspect was very helpful. I don’t know what I would have done if I hadn’t encountered such a point like this. I am able to at this time look forward to my future. Thanks a lot so much for the impressive and result oriented help. I won’t hesitate to propose your web page to anybody who will need counselling on this area.
