...maybe these local hangover hacks will. 🌯 ☕️ 🍾

We’ve all been there. Happy hour with the crew turns into several bottles of wine + ‘it’s the freakin’ weekend’ celebratory shots. Then you wake up the next day + vow to never drink again... Because those hangovers hit 20 times worse as soon as you turn 25.

#Asked by us on Facebook, Twitter + Instagram: What are your local hangover hacks?

#Answered by y’all: For when the Goody’s powder + gatorade just won’t do it, here are some local hangover cures. ⬇️

🥔🍳 Cafe Strudel hangover hashbrowns 🙌 –@_megomyeggo

Get the egg sunny-side up, add a couple dabs of hot sauce + you’re golden. I may have used this hack a time or two.

☕️🍊 a vader and a $2-off mimosa @dripcoffeecolumbia on Sundays 🙌 side of water, but that's optional. –@caseyanns

What’s a vadar? ➡️ “Coca-cola + espresso over ice. Sounds weird but < 5 minutes after initial contact feel like a human again 😂. There’s also a Leia if you’d rather have a diet coke + espresso bev. 💁”

This combo of beverages makes me feel weird, but double the caffeine? Not against trying it.

🍹🍾 bogo Publico drinks –@jojo_onthatbeat_

I’ve been known to cash in my second-drink-free pong real quick. Pro tip: try the s’mores cold brew + the spicy margarita ➡️ both are served in a mason jar + will make you feel better about life.

👟🌮 Saturday morning workouts with @fiacolumbia followed by breakfast tacos from the Real Mexico food truck at @sodacitysc –@malleymo

Sweat out last night’s sins + refuel with tacos. I dig it.

🍺🌯 Sparkling water, German wheat beer + a breakfast burrito. “Haven’t had a real hangover since moving to Colatown, so let me know where I can find ‘said’ cure If I need it. 😉🍻” –@craft_beer_mercenary

Sounds like Cock ‘n Bull has all of the fixin’s for that combo.

🍗🍞 One word: Bojangles –@midlandmortgagecorp

Greasy chicken biscuit FTW.

🐠🍅 Fish and grits + blood mary bar at Yesterday’s –@maricougdev

Because tomato juice + celery replenish your body with vitamins. Duh.

🥔🍠 3 potato + goat cheese hashbrowns at @116state –@kdrafts823

Gold potatoes, purple potatoes + sweet potatoes. Obsessed. Pro tip: Add over-easy eggs. Best extra $2 you’ll ever spend.

🍕💨 Thirsty Fellow, outside, with all the fans on –@ryalcurtis

Take it to the face – air from the fans, that is. It’s key for coming back to life.

🍜 Go get wasted, sit and unwind over a bowl of @MenkoiColumbia before turning in for the night and wake up feeling 👌👌👌 –@Theaprilblake

That’s some quality drunk food when you’re stumbling out of Pearlz. On Friday + Saturday nights, the ramen house is open ‘til 2:30 a.m. – (and 10:30 p.m. during the week, for when you stay too long after that networking event).

🥓 Bacon… the only real hangover cure. –Aaron Shaw

Aaron gave us actual scientific proof to back-up his answer.

🍔🍟 Rush's cheeseburger basket + a sweet tea –Margaret Moler

Heard from another Rush’s superfan: “I'm a wildcard, I believe they have the best chicken sandwich in Columbia.” Taste test challenge accepted.

🍗🍋 Bojangles biscuit, Bo rounds + a MASSIVE Sierra Mist. (Coincidentally also my pre-tailgate meal. Ya know, to get a good base 😂) –Mackenzie Grant

I can attest to the Sierra Mist. Lemon-lime soda never tasted better than when it’s settling your lemon-drop-shot-filled stomach. Oh, college.

Chloe’s hack: Gatorade + Advil 💊 ➡️ walk to Henry’s (fresh air ✔️): order a water, coffee, Diet Coke + mimosa ✔️, make someone split chicken + waffles 🍗 and eggs benny 🍳 with me ➡️ back home to House of Cards.

Beth’s hack: Sleep in 💤 , frittata + cheese grits 🧀 at Rosewood Market, then 4 p.m. restorative class at City Yoga. 🕉

My hack: Walk to Five Points: dirty chai ☕️ from Drip and egg + avocado 🥑 croissant 🥐 from Gourmet Shop. If I feel like I can rodeo again later – toss in the mimosa kit. 🍾
