Sprinkle a few drops of Agostura (sp?) bitters (available in most bar supply stores) on a wedge of lime - bite into lime wedge, take in & swallow juice & no more hiccups - guaranteed.

Concentrate on your breathing and breathe deep for several breaths until you feel the spsms subside then sip an entire glass of water, slowly.
I think hiccups are caused by dehydration. I used to get them all the time and now that I'v started drinking more water I never do.

Drink 10 swallows of water in one breath, and then a burp will form - the hiccups are GONE.

Ok I cant say this works EVERY time but it damned sure works most the time.....well it always worked when my Mom did it to us when we were kids....To the person suffering hiccups say to them "Okay now I want you to hiccup for me REAL LOUD! COM EON!! DO IT!! Real loud, hiccup for me, come on....please you can do it, hiccup...." then ther person is so busy concentrating on trying to hiccup for you that in most cases for reasons unknown to me the hiccups are gone!!! BEST OF LUCK!

Hold your breath until you pass out, then when you wake up you might have a headache, but the hiccups should be gone.
Just kidding, try what those other people suggested.

1. It's odd but it works (really!) ...drink a glass of water with your head bent down, and don't use a straw.
2. My aunt once scared me and it got rid of hiccups (she pretended to accuse me of stealing money from her)
3. Or you could always drink a tall glass of water

I learned this in Dallas, lol (10 yrs ago by the way)
man, ok,here it goes.
*while someone is holding your glass of soda,juice or water..
*You drink and AT the same time plug BOTH of your ears with your fingers.really plug them..lol
*Do it for AT LEAST 5-7 seconds.
I have never found a cure UNTIL someone at the "WEST END" told me about that. Now when my daughters hic-cup we do this and IT ACTUALLY WORKS! (IF i am by myself I use a straw to help me)

Fill a cup of water. Hang over the cup (in a forward bend) drink out of the opposite side of the cup. Completely. It's works! GOOD LUCK!
