A simple natural remedy for hangovers
You guys know I like a cocktail from time to time. But if I have too many (which is very hard for me to figure out) I get the WORST hangovers ever.
I can have 2 beers and feel terrible the next day and then the next month have 3 cocktails and be totally fine. It just doesn't make sense to me. I've never been able to figure out what I should be drinking so that I don't get terrible hangovers.

And once you have kids, it is even more important to not feel awful. Hangovers and children do NOT mix.
I had no idea that honey played a role in hangover remedies. What is so great is that you probably already have honey in your house and don't need to go buy anything for this remedy.
And honey makes a great cocktail ingredient (use it instead of simple syrup) so it kind of kills two birds with one stone.
Before drinking
Before you start drinking make sure that you do this step.
Mix 1 tablespoon of honey into ⅔ cup milk.
Drink it. So easy. Then go about your business.
After Drinking
Do this next honey remedy after the party (and after the hotel lobby).
Mix 2 tablespoon of honey with the juice of one lemon in ⅔ cup water.
Drink it.
These all-natural remedies sound totally tolerable. I have not tried this yet to tell you if it works or not. But I will update this when I do try it out.
Have you ever heard of this hangover remedy before? We also use honey to help with my kid's coughs. What do you use honey for?

Jealous! I didn't start liking honey until about a year ago! What was wrong with me?!
pattie says
great tips! I have yet to have a hangover... but mainly because I don't drink enough to get there. I wouldn't be able to stand it! I'm totally going to do this honey thing though... just in case.
Melissa says
I want to try this regardless of drinking or not because it sounds delish! I take a tsp of honey every morning for allergies so I'm a big honey fan. :)

I'm going to have to save this, especially with Derby this weekend :)
