Joebucks Posted February 13 #26 Share Posted February 13 If I drink 3 glasses of water before I go to bed, a hangover is significantly reduced for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are ever on a cruise to Ensenada, "Birrieria La Guadalajara" has a good reputation and serves birria de chivo. It's about a 20 minute walk from the cruise port.

navybankerteacher Posted February 13 #28 Share Posted February 13 9 hours ago, mom says said: Besides the idea of just drinking in moderation and not getting stupid drunk in the first place, try drinking an 8 oz glass of water after any alcoholic drink. And if you do wake up with a hangover, eat a big, high fat breakfast along with a large quantity of non alcoholic fluids. Common sense approach. Of course, anyone who keeps getting hangovers obviously deserves them. After a few experiences, you should know when to switch off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's about a 20 minute walk from the cruise port. Love it! Many years ago in San Francisco we went to a little Mexican that I read had birria de chivo. The cute, little lady there kept saying it was lamb. But when we cleaned our plates I ask "cabrito?" "Si." And a huge smile. At least one gringa gained some respect that day 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Learning when to stop drinking before triggering a hangover does prevent getting a hangover - pretty much precisely addressing OP’s post. Sorry if it involves a bit of self discipline rather than some magic trick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drink a cup of hot water + jello, followed by a cup of cold water. They claimed it would "gel" in your stomach and prevent all that unpleasantness. 20 hours ago, ZsaZsa2019 said: We cannot bring Gatorade on the ship, can we? Probably depends upon your ship and what else you choose to bring. Regardless, we drink powdered Gatorade -- little "sticks" that're easy to bring onboard /easy to mix with a cup of water. A tip: Mix your Gatorade a day ahead of time; if it "sits" before you drink it, it tastes just like the stuff you buy ready-made -- but those little sticks (purchased in bulk from Amazon) are about twenty cents each. Might be more now -- I last bought while the pandemic was in full swing. A couple hundred sticks last a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K32682 Posted February 13 #36 Share Posted February 13 12 hours ago, clo said: But it doesn't involve an anonymous stranger being judgmental. Perhaps we should take the same approach to seasickness. Lessening its effects is a common topic in this forum when clearly the "common sense approach" would be to not cruise and those who keep getting sea sick "obviously deserve" it. After a "few experiences" they should know to stay on land. Anyone who cruises runs the risk of rough weather. Anyone who consumes alcohol runs the risk of having one too many. Knowing how to mitigate the effects of sea sickness and a hangover is good information to know if you cruise and no one should be judgmental about either topic. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I don't see the judgmental part of it. Someone wants to drink they should drink. Even if they get completely snockered, it is no skin off my nose as long as I don't have to deal with them.
