Anyone for ant tea? Hangover remedies from around the world

Swap the new year fry-up for more exotic morning-after remedies from around the world. But where can you get ant tea or a ‘pickleback’ in the UK?

Pickle juice, Russia

Not surprisingly, Russians have a lot of great hangover cures. One of the favourites is chugging a glassful of the brine out of a jar of pickled gherkins. Apparently, the fermentation process creates digestive probiotics and the salt helps replace lost electrolytes.
