1. I LOVE the sugar cure for hiccups! Only thing that works for me.
It has to be brown sugar, but other than that, works every time.

2. what is the different effect between brown & white sugar?
(or do you just prefer brown?)

that sounds easier to swallow--maybe next time i'll try the brown sugar

3. Brown works; white...not so much.
I have no clue why brown would have helped me all of those times and white never has.

4. I take a big gulp of vinegar.
Not so great tasting, but it works every time.

5. From my bartending days, this worked 99% of the time.
Get a lemon wedge.

Pour sugar on the lemon wedge.

Then pour bitters over the sugar.

Suck on lemon.
