5. Pickle Juice, Russia

Old school Russian cure. Consuming a small amount of pickle juice can restore electrolytes and replenish the body, mainly due to the high salt content.

6. Buffalo Milk, Namibia

Not actually anything to do with Buffalos at all. This drink from Namibia is a mix of clotted cream, dark rum, spiced rum, cream liqueur and ice cream. That’s one calorific hair of the dog.

No fish in this traditional American hangover cure. Just a raw egg (yolk intact), Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco, vinegar, salt and pepper and optional brandy. Knock back in one go.
