The New Year means new resolutions. Some people will go to the gym, some people will eat healthier, and others will take a month off from drinking. But for those of you looking for a more practical New Year’s resolution, let’s commit to a hangover cure that actually works. And the older we get, the harder it is to kick a hangover. Let’s be honest… we are no longer in college and the “Sunday Scaries” are real. Everyone has a cure that works for them so here are 13 hangover cures designed to leave the Sunday Scaries behind in 2022.
Drinking More
The New Year’s resolution is to make the hangover better… not drink less! So crack a fruity beer for brunch and ease your way into the day.
Coffee
Skipping morning coffee will lead to a pain worse than a hangover. Pour yourself an extra cup, keep the lights off, and feel that caffeine rush kick in.
Puking
You have a 9AM Ticket on the Yuke City Express. You feel awful during, and great after. Stowe your hair, take your seat, and get ready for departure.Ramen

Cup of Noodles is a cure all – it boosts your immunity to diseases, toughens your stomach, and is delicious after an all night bender.
Exercise
Exercising the morning after a night out is going to hurt, but not as much as your pride if you skip leg day yet again.
Bacon, egg, and cheese Sandwich
1 tbsp. of extra-virgin olive oil, 4 breakfast sausages, casings removed, 4 large eggs, 2 tbsp. of half-and-half, kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, 2 tbsp. of chopped chives, 1 avocado, mashed, 4 slices of sourdough, 2/3 cups of shredded cheddar, and 2 tbsp. of butter, divided.
Its delicious. Need I say more?
Dunkin'
This is more about the journey than the destination, hence why it is separate entry from coffee. Wearing your baggiest sweatpants, sweatshirt, and crocs with your hair in a bun and sunglasses blocking out those evil rays to sit in the seemingly endless drive-thru to get an iced coffee and a glazed stick is a cure in and of it self.Water
This is probably the only real hangover cure on this list – and it’s a winner. Make sure to stay hydrated, especially during your night out! Because who knows, you may just be hitting the gym to ease the pain.
Just Go Back To Bed
Seriously, it’ll make you feel better. And you probably didn’t sleep enough last night anyways. Getting at least 8 hours of sleep is important on a regular night. So if you’ve been out drinking, sleep is even more essential!
