"'Vuelve a la Vida' ('Back to Life' or 'Return to Life') is a ceviche cocktail that appears to have originated in Veracruz, Mexico. It contains various seafoods such as shrimp, octopus, oysters, crab, et al., with ketchup/tomato sauce/salsa, lime juice, onions, cilantro, and chile peppers. This 'corpse reviver' (sometimes called 'Levanta Muertos') is supposed to cure any hangover. That sounds so much better as a hangover cure than menudo or greasy Jack in the Box tacos." – rworange

"Rice, but not plain rice. It has to be mushy as in congee or loaded with toppings as in fried rice and ketchup or bibimbap." – JungMann, on a vegan hangover cure

"One doesn't necessarily 'need' binchotan, but it does burn much hotter and cleaner than ordinary hardwood charcoal." – MikeG, on binchotan charcoal
