Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
Dinner was comprised of seven varieties of animal flesh, with appropriate garnish. The entertainment involved aging strippers singing karaoke. The libations complemented both. And then some. A delightful, if stomach-churning, evening. My rarefied hangover the next day required me to break new ground in seeking out a palliative. Luckily, while shopping for stocking stuffers at a local Italian market, I found what I plan to make my signature hangover treatment: Sanbittèr, a prettily bottled "apératif" soda produced by San Pellegrino.The operative word is bitter, too bitter, maybe, for some people who lack Italian sensibilities. The taste was described by the market proprietor as Campari without the alcohol, and I'd say that is pretty accurate. Apparently it's a favorite of teetotaling Italianos for that reason. So, good for both varieties of "recovering alcoholic."
Bitters have long been recommended as a stomach soother. Sanbittèr, with its slight fizz and its ruby-redness, seems a bit more fun than regular bitters, though. It comes in tiny, sippable bottles that will later make lovely bud vases or creamers. Better yet, it's available for order online.

For the less brave and still sour stomached, blackberry brandy will cure hangover stomach too. Or rather, like bitters, cures your will to live, then cures your hangover stomach.
