I drank too much wine once (okay maybe twice) and the next morning I felt horrid. My friend told me to go get a big, juicy, somewhat greasy hamburger. Recipe: get in car, drive to Carls Jr or In & Out..get burger..go home and scarf it down. Lay down. You'll feel better soon.
1 1/2 cup v8
1/2 cup soda water
1 teaspoon sugar
Dash of salt
Dash of bitters
2 croutons
Mix all together.
Pour over crushed ice.
Place croutons on top.
Drink it all including crushed ice.
My boss (I call her the pro drinker) when ever she comes in with a hangover she drink a glass of V8 Juice and a can of beer in the morning. She says it always helps.
I know I've never felt like making something for myself when I've had a bit too much fun the night before, so my personal cure all comes from McDonald's. I'm talkin' about a sausage biscuit, hash brown and a coke, to be exact. The dough from the biscuit, the grease from the hash brown and the sugar and fizzy in the soda is some magic combo that got me through my early 20's :)
Ok so I guess this is more of a tip than it is a recipe. I worked at a smoothie place in college on many a Sunday morning and trust me when I say, this works!
If you are hung over, a double shot of wheat grass is all you need to make you feel better. (Well perhaps start with a single shot and work your way up to a double shot.) They sell it at health food places, but more commonly at smoothie joints.
When you order it, tell them not to rinse it (this just waters it down) but make sure they don't cut too close to the root so that you aren't drinking dirt with your wheat grass juice.
If you know you are going to be drinking ahead of time, you can even go buy it and store it in your fridge for the next morning.
Drink it fast (like a shot) and enjoy the rest of your day!
I come from a LARGE Irish family and we know how to make ourselves hurt the day after a party. But believe it or not my remedy works. First, drink a really big glass of water before you go to bed. Next morning when you wake up and your head feels like it's going to split open and your eyes look like a New York road map, take four non narcotic pain relievers (I use Tylenol) and drink three cups of sweetened coffee. Hangover will be gone.
We boat all summer long and camp with our boat, needless to say once we are back on ground safe, we tend to over indulged. I used to always drink soda when I had a hng over(it never did anything). I don't care for the seetness of soda anymore and one morning I drank a quart or so of Gatorade and in abot 45 minutes I felt great! It is now my hangover cure of choice, but I will try some of the others mentioned.

To cure that hang-over all you need a little bit of whatever you were drinking the night before. The key here is a little bit. Half-a beer the next morning does wonders. Then head for the bacon and OJ.
take non-aspirin pain relievers (I use two extra strength tylenol) and a large glass of water before you go to bed.
when you get up eat a greasy fast food hamburger type sandwich and follow it with some tomato juice.
you will wake up feeling bad, but at least you won't have a head ache.
this actually works.
One can of the Immune Nutrisoda drink. It is a vitamin B bomb, so it truly works.
1 can pabst blue ribbon (the lighter the beer the better)
1 shot of bloody mary mix
salt and pepper
pour the beer in a glass, add the shot of mix, and spice to taste
in nebraska, they call this a red beer. mostly women drink them to make thier beer go further, but it is the best cure to a raging hangover i have ever found. my mom taught me how to make them as a way to get some "hair of the dog that bit me"
Before you go to bed (and if you aren't of sound mind nor body make sure to designate an "adviser" as well as a driver) make sure to drink at least 10-15 ounces of Pedialyte or some store brand of Pedialyte.
As for flavors it is probably best to stick with orange or another light colored one- doesn't stain the carpet as badly if it all comes back up.
Trust me, this stuff is a life saver come morning!
