Surely this was one of the Hollywood classics of 1935 but more than anything else to me this reminds me of the night when drinks were gulped down the throat in quick succession and then the aftermath the next morning?

Many patrons at the bar have come across especially when I am bartending for a lunch parties and asked for something that would cure their Saturday night overdose. Me have been a victim of the same myself at times and have tried many variations. It is not a great thing to happen when we wake up the next morning and feel sick and negative about last night whether it is too many drinks or ...

What is interesting though of this fact is to get on something that can get us out of this mode at the earliest.

Before I suggest cure for the subject I would rather speak about preventive measures for the same. If I were to go to a party or a bar where I can sense that the drinks intake would be on the higher side then even before I get my glass of the liquid I would choose to drink about half a litre of water. It does two things. Washes my system and sets me right for the evening and secondly and most importantly does not allow the alcohol to rule even after a couple of good drinks.

If one can consume water along with the drinks then the going is great but yes that water before every spirit can tame the spirit of its unworthiness act. In many gatherings snacks and light eats do the rounds along with drinks and there is no shying away from the same. A good plate of gratis to go with the drinks enhances the sheer experience of the drinks and again helps the body maintain the senses of a good gentleman.

The next morning having realised that the intake was the reason of a drowsy body makes it difficult to leave bed on time. The start of the day is like being a Zombie with the brain “half choked” which is a phrase used by many of my fellow alcohol lovers.

Glass of chilled water for sure and then a good bath with equally cold water before heading for another chilled glass of fresh citrus juice. To ease it all we need to then head for a heavy breakfast or brunch. Lastly if nothing works then head for the neighbourhood bar and say the following to the bartender: Corpse Reviver or Prairie Oyster.

No these are no medicine but cocktails designed to cure hangovers and works beautifully if the bartender knows to fix it right. If no then of course the bloody Mary rules the names of the 11.a.m. drinks. One of the old time classics “The Philadelphia Story” Uncle Willie suggests a glass of tonic which is said to pop the pennies off the eyelids of dead Irishmen.

Unlike “Remember Last Night” we can surely fight the one who is up to commit murders at the bar!!
