|November 25, 2009 | Found Images

Here are some hangover cures from The BOOZE Book, by June Dutton, Edith Vanocur, John Astrop, and Eric Hill – Determined Productions, Inc. 1967.

1. DRINK A COKE out of the bottle as fast as possible ( Note : I recommend a Mexican Coke, which comes in a glass bottle and contains real sugar ).

2. PRARIE OYSTER

1 jigger BRANDY

2 or 3 dashes VINEGAR

2 or 3 dashes WORCESTERSHIRE SAUCE

1 dash LOUISIANA BRAND HOT SAUCE

1 pinch SALT

1 EGG YOLK

Mix everything except egg yolk. Float yolk whole. Drink without flinching.

3. PLACE A CUBE of sugar in a saucer and pour 1/3 jigger of BRANDY over it. Ignite the brandy and let it flame until it goes out. Drink the remaining liquid and eat the rest of the sugar as hot as possible.
