Maybe you should know better by now, but in case you do have a hangover today, the Daily News gives some suggestions to relieve your hangover, like Hangover Helper, different facial masks and eye gels, and teeth whitening strips. Some bartenders give their expert suggestions as well, which range from the sensible (water, Vitamin E) to the logical (a few beers) all the way to the gross (pickles followed by milk).
Gothamist's hangover remedy involves, if vomitting hasn't already occured, a combination of water, aspirin, crackers, Nickel's Lendemain de fete/Morning After Gel, realizing that we forgot part of the evening, seeing evidence of our trangressions, weeping and the TV on mute. What works for you?
