What's the best way to cure hiccups instantly?

the best way is drinking water with your head all the way back.it really works.

Peanut butter does it for me every time...take a big fat dollop of it on a tablespoon, put it in your mouth and slowly suck it off the roof of your mouth.....works for me....!!

My Grandma use to say to put a wet string on the forehead.

GUARANTEED: Take a spoon full of sugar, place on tongue then immediately drink a glass of water.

This will work every time. Everyone at work didn't believe it until they tried it. My mom always did this with me and her and it always worked.

The sugar and then water allows it to 'break' your hiccup cycle. Not a chemist, just now it works!

Not only that, hell it doesn't taste bad, is not 'wierd' to do and is quick and easy. What more can you ask for?

We watched a segment of Mythbusters, they said to rub your forehead between the eyebrows. Supposedly, it worked, I haven't tried it, but then I haven't had hiccups lately.

ok, this has seriously always worked for me...either rub your earlobes, or pull your tounge really, and i mean really hard. i read the tounge pulling thing in a magazine, and the earlobe thing i got off my brother-in-law, they both really work, at leat they have for me! hope this helps!

Get water in a glass, bend over far at the waist and drink water from the opposite side of the glass. It always works for me.

Hiccoughs are an involuntary spasm of the Diaphragm muscle I have not ever heard of anything to cure them instantly. If you are wondering about the unusual spelling of the word I assure you it is correct. I have tried everything to rid myself of that dreaded anomoly. The most that I can honestly say is let them run their course. Sorry, good luck with your hiccoughs.

get a glass of water with a straw in it. block your ears with your thumbs and your nostrils with little fingers at the same time. now gulp down the water till you cant swallow anymore. That should do the trick. xxx

Try this remedy, it really works. Light a match, extinguish it in a full glass of water, stir it, then drink the water. Has something to do with the sulfur. You won't get sick, so don't worry.

It may sound weired but try this; try to suck air in, as if you're smoking with your mouth full of warm water for few secs, and swallow it. Make sure when to be bending during the process and thank me for it.
