It makes them go away asap, and tastes good in the process. I use brown sugar because no white in this house, but white does work just as well.

then begin drinking a glass of water & swallow the sugar. While doing this hold your breath. Once everything is swallowed, slowly exhale and inhale.

Hiccups, gone.

It gets scarry towards the end, but if you can do it the hiccups will be gone.
