Hiccups
Swallow a teaspoonful of vinegar. Sometimes just thinking about swallowing vinegar will do the trick.

Hiccups
Hold your breath until they stop. If it doesn't work the first time, try once or twice more.

Hiccups
Inhale until your lungs are full. Swallow, but without letting any air out. Sip some more air in, without letting any air out. Swallow. Repeat until you cannot swallow any more. Then exhale.

Hiccups
Drink from the wrong side of the glass.....this is an old saying but don't dismiss it, if you get the mechanics right it really works.
1. Fill glass ~1/2 full of water.
2. Tilt head and place lip on far side of glass.
3. Suck water down your throat and swallow in this position.

Hiccups
An effective remedy for hiccups is to slowly swallow a spoonful of granulated sugar.
Interestingly enough, it works just as well to
imagine
swallowing a spoonful of granulated sugar, as long as you make the same physical motions as you would with the real thing.
