I tried a 10p viral trick to banish my Christmas hangover – it cured my queasy stomach but there’s an issue it can’t fix

DECEMBER – the month of festive cheer, endless toasts, and, let’s be real, a lot of drinking. From office parties to Christmas catch-ups with friends and those impromptu mulled wine nights, it feels like there’s always a glass in hand. But, of course, with all the fun comes the inevitable downside: the dreaded hangover.
You know the drill – dragging yourself out of bed after one too many, staring down a full day of work (or worse, another party) when all you really want is to curl up under a blanket. And let’s not forget the grand finale of the month, New Year’s Eve - the ultimate night of celebration that guarantees the first day of January won’t be as fresh as we’d like.
So how do you survive the season of endless celebrations without completely crashing?. Well, as someone who’s practically a professional in the art of hangovers (and a lover of parties, too), I’ve tried just about every ‘cure’ out there. From fry-ups to carb-heavy lunches, sugary drinks, and the infamous hair of the dog (which, let’s be honest, I wouldn’t really recommend), I’ve searched high and low for the miracle hangover fix.
But nothing really did the trick, until I discovered ginger. One day, while scrolling through TikTok, I started seeing a ton of videos praising ginger as the ultimate hangover hack. It was being hailed as the number one remedy for nausea, so naturally, I was curious.
