I noticed at the ex-Queens Head in Henley (now called the Idle Hour) that they have a super range of soft drinks - various fruit juice mixes even Root Beer, Dandelion and Burdock and 'real' lemonade and ginger beer. It would seem there is trend developing, as mentioned in yesterday's Independent, for style bars to offer such delights. Even I, partaker of vast quantities of Breakspears and Mount Gay Golden and Coke, have drunk more than a few recently.

The Independent recommends three 'soft options' available from supermarkets and on the high street -

Bon Grape Low Sugar Sparkling Grape Juice (Tesco £1.29) "low sugar means artifical additives must be used but the lively flavours make them worthwhile"
Grove Fresh Original Tomato and Vegetable Juice (Tesco, Waitrose, Sainsburys £2.39-£2.79) "improbably good for you and entirely delicious"
Fever-Tree Ginger Ale (Oddbins, Waitrose £2.99 for 4) "From themakers of the best tonic water around comes the best ginger ale. Great with proper rum"

Before going to bed two large glasses of h2o, a good multiple vitamen, and 4 advil. Do not take Tylenol as you do not want to do any more damage to your liver.
If you still wake up a little hangover fix some tuna salad with mayo. (the vit. B's in tuna will perk you right up and drink water or diet coke
