When You Have Had Too Much
When You Have Had Too Much The holiday season wasn’t made for moderation. And certainly not on December 31, the biggest event of the year, when it can be easy to overindulge in food and especially drink. In case it happens to you, here are some sure-fire, if not seemingly unusual hangover cures, from each of our provinces. British Columbia: Kombucha The murky-looking blend of water, tea and sugar is fermented, which means it’s great for gut health and getting your digestive system back on track after a night of debauchery. To aid your recovery, most kombuchas are loaded with additional health-boosting ingredients such as charcoal and ginger. Hmmm I have a friend who drinks Kombucha and the look of it makes me gag. Alberta: The Caesar Canadians consume an estimated 350-million Caesars each year. Created by a Calgary bartender in 1969 for the launch of an Italian restaurant, it is similar to a Bloody Mary, but pays homage to Italian flavours. The classic recipe calls for a shot of vodka, tomato and clam juices, a few dashes of Worcestershire, hot sauce and salt and pepper in a salt-rimmed glass. Add a stalk of celery as garnish. I enjoy a spicy, cold Caesar, anytime. Saskatchewan: Pickle juice Whether they’re store-bought or homemade, there’s a jar of pickles in every good Saskatchewanian’s fridge. Try guzzling down pickle juice straight from the jar. They also make locally-distilled dill pickle vodka. Never heard of dill pickle vodka before. Not sure 🤔 I would like it. Manitoba: Sacred Boreal Wildcraft Tea Hand-picked in northern Manitoba, Sacred Boreal Wildcraft Tea is the province’s best hangover cure. Blending white pine, sweetgrass and sage—all traditionally used by Indigenous peoples to relieve indigestion and reduce inflammation—this herbal tea is a tasty way to rid yourself of a whole host of post-party ailments. I love tea 🍵 and would try this. Ontario: Vitamin infusions There are wellness clinics that specialize in intravenous detox therapies. Chock full of vitamins and minerals, the IV-administered treatments aim to restore the hydration and electrolytes that your body craves after a night of heavy drinking. If you really made a night of it, consider a “Recovery Infusion” that adds anti-nauseants, antacids and pain meds into the mix. Have spent enough time in hospitals 🏥. Sure as heck wouldn’t be doing IVs for ‘fun’. Quebec: Poutine Can you imagine indulging in grease, salt and carbs when you’re feeling a little green around the gills? The key ingredients are fries, fresh cheese curds and gravy—the way it was originally made in Quebec in the 1950s. Since poutine is slang for “mess” it doesn’t matter at all how it looks; it’s how this gravy-soaked snack makes you feel the morning after that’s important. This sounds like the last thing that would work but my friends in Quebec, swear it does! New Brunswick: Samosas The triangular-shaped Indian snacks made of spiced meat, potato and vegetables in a fried pastry shell pack just enough heat to help you sweat out toxins. I have had some Samosas that made my face turn red so can understand why this would work! Nova Scotia: Donairs The official food of Halifax, donairs are essentially pita sandwiches crammed with spit-roasted beef, tomato and onion, and drizzled with a sweet, garlicky sauce. Nova Scotians know that eating a donair right before you go to sleep, helps the room from spinning. Pretty much every pizza place in the province serves up this preventative hangover cure until the wee hours of the morning. Never had one but I would try them. Prince Edward Island: Fries (with the works) While there’s no official definition of what constitutes “fries with the works,” the delicacy can contain anything from ground beef or pork to peas, carrots, mushrooms or onions (drenched in gravy, obviously) atop their world-famous spuds. Sounds too heavy and greasy, but apparently is effective. Newfoundland and Labrador: Jiggs’ Dinner The traditional meal consists of salt beef, cabbage, potato, carrot, turnip, pease pudding and usually roast turkey or pork—all boiled together in the same pot. If any one of these ingredients is absent, it’s not considered a proper Jiggs’ Dinner. For the full restorative effect, some folks even recommend downing the “pot liquor”—the water that’s left over after the boiled ingredients have been removed from the pot. With all due respect, sounds like just too much! |

That Caesar sounds good. Pedialyte or Gatorade and more sleep. I find the best hangover cure is to NOT drink.

In Australia, we have the "hair of the dog". Meaning we just have another drink when we wake up.

Thanks. I thought it was timely and I do like to mix things up (pardon the pun). Overindulgence of any kind can lead to all sorts of problems.

[BQuebec: Poutine ] My favorite dietary guilty pleasure. How I miss enjoying Poutine during my trips to Canada . I would even bring some of Smoke's Poutinerie across the border to Michigan to enjoy later on.

Many years ago my "hair of the dog" was a Bloody Mary. Now, I drink a lot less. But if I were to have more I would down an Advil before sleeping to avoid the hangover. When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

I don't know what it is, but I've never had a hangover in my life, and I used to get pretty obliviated at times. This caused much hostility among people who weren't at the time able to deliver the beating they so wanted to give me.

When I used to drink,eating something before passing out was the key to avoiding what your body was trying to tell you.Now I avoid those who imbibe in the legal drug trade and the weapons they drive. Using more than all the road!
