About this listen

No matter where you are in the world, the morning after a night of celebration feels remarkably the same. The heavy head, the dry mouth, the uneasy stomach, and that vague sense of regret — together they make up one of the oldest and most relatable human experiences: the hangover. But how different cultures respond to this shared misery tells us more about humanity than any scientific explanation ever could.

Beyond the Bloody Mary: Ten Unexpected Hangover Cures from Around the World is a witty, enlightening journey through the world’s strangest, most comforting, and occasionally stomach-turning remedies for the aftermath of indulgence. While the Western world swears by the Bloody Mary — that spicy, tomato-laced cocktail of vodka and self-deception — author Tamsin Haleshenk ventures further afield to uncover the curious rituals other nations swear by when facing the consequences of a good night out.

In Scotland, recovery begins with a can of Irn-Bru, the neon-orange soda adored by generations, its mysterious mix of sweetness and fizz acting as both hydration and nostalgia.
