Just wanted to gather this because different ways work on different people...What is your method of curing hiccups? Mine is drinking water upsidedown and spinning 5 times... Go figure.. What is yours?

Just calm down and breathe. The reason you have hiccups is because your brain does not have enough oxygen.

So drinking water also works.

I drink exactly 10 sips of water in a row (not too fast) without a pause. Have always worked for me xP

I drink water while plugging my ears. It`s hard to do, but it works

The way I understand it is that hiccups are basically diaphragm fibrillation. Just like the heart, you have to stop the muscle from moving irregularily. So yeah, relaxing and breathing slowly and fully works perfectly. I usually get rid of them in 10-15 seconds.

just drink water

The thing with drinking water is that it's unnecessary. Plus you don't exactly relax when doing a bottom's up, which often results in several glasses of water for something that can easily be done by simply taking a few slow, deep breaths.
