This one’s weird but works: if you feel the nausea creeping in, sniff an alcohol wipe or a lemon wedge. Seriously—the sharp scent can distract your brain from the queasiness. Bartenders keep citrus for a reason, and it’s not just for garnish.
Another hack: chew on a piece of raw ginger or sip ginger ale (the real kind, with actual ginger). Ginger is nature’s anti-nausea superhero, and it tastes way better than a bucket of regret.
