CBD for hangovers

My top pick to help your hangover is this CBD Drink Mix

Is CBD Good For Hangovers?

Well, this is always going to be different for everyone but if you find one that hydrates then the answer is yes, there are CBDs that will help hangovers. Most CBDs are good for the puke feelings you might get too.

I managed to find a CBD product that you can order today that hydrates so it can work hard (in the most mellow way) at getting rid of your bad hang: Nuleaf Naturals CBD Drink Mix.

Mix it into any drink you have (works best with a hot bev but cold is good too), give it 30 minutes or so, and you might be getting back to normal.

If you manage to remember to have one before you pass out fall asleep, you just might prevent a hangover altogether. It is not advised to CBD and drink at the same time though, but you knew that already.

If you are worried about mixing CBD and alcohol, get some good information about it at Farmer & Chemist. They also have some good CBD products to check out.

(Some products I link to are affiliates of mine – but it doesn’t make them any less relevant, I am here to help you with those hangovers for realz)

Your CBD for a hangover idea might not be helping you at the moment, though. Maybe you drank too many old beers and you need help now. Let’s explore other hangover helpers that you can order or ones you may have around the house now.

Yo, look at this!: I also found over at Flower Of Life, they have a hangover bundle for you. Complete with oils, gummies, and face packs.

Is green tea good for hangovers?

I am not a tea person, but if you are, I can’t imagine it wouldn’t help. I have never heard of anyone’s hangover increasing because they had green tea. Overindulging on green teas can’t be worse than what you did last night.

Is coconut water good for hangovers?

You have enough coconut water in one of these and you’ll forget all about that hangover

Yes, coconut water is good for a hangover. It has properties that help:

  • High in natural electrolytes.
  • It helps with cramps and a hangover is one giant cramp.
  • It’s low-calorie (you had enough calories last night).
  • There are minerals in coconut water that help body recovery as well.

The most popular coconut water on Amazon is Vita Coco.

If you have a Whole Foods close enough, get some ordered to the house.

Is Pedialyte good for hangovers?

Yes, I know from personal experience that a full Pedialyte helps you recover from a hangover. It is also a good preventative (if you can remember to have one before bed).

I like the fruit punch myself, order some up here. And the grape isn’t terrible but you feel like a child, which is fine for a bad morning like this.

It also comes in a mix like the CBD drink does.

What vitamins are good for hangovers?

Does vitamin B or B12 help prevent hangovers or help them go away?

Most people say yes and I would agree. This is one I would add to your cocktail of things to get rid of the hangover, I wouldn’t rely solely on it.

It would be a good idea to take some B vitamins before you start drinking (you know, while you’re thinking about it).

Here is what I do to prevent or help make a hangover go away

  • Load up on water before and during.
  • Eat a solid meal before or during the drinking session.
  • A couple of Advils and a Gatorade or Pedialyte as I go to bed.

Of course, I don’t always take these steps and that’s when I end up with a hangover. 

When that hangover happens, I go back and do what I should have done the night before:

  • Eat a good fatty meal.
  • Drink water.
  • Drink a Pedialyte or Gatorade.
  • Take some ibuprofen.

And now I plan to have some CBD Drink Mix in the house as an extra weapon against a hangover.

Hope these ideas help you. Safe and happy drinking to you!

5 Things About Beer Drinking That Should Be Talked About More

I sometimes have beer-influenced thoughts about the little things in drinking life. Randomly beginning with these five:

  1. That tingle you get through your body when the alcohol from the first sip of beer hits you right. It doesn’t happen every time at all, but when it does, yowza. This may be an only me thing, I dunno.
  2. How big of a bummer it is when you go to pour more beer in your glass from a can and the can is empty. Sadness.
  3. How nice of a feeling when you go to pour a beer from a can and there is more in it than you thought.
  4. How happy and sometimes creative a nice beer can make you.
  5. Taprooms and beer gardens are usually the most interesting-looking businesses in their neighborhood.

I expect this to be a little series that I will revisit on the blog now and again. Make sure to sign up for the Drinking & Thinking newsletter for more things like this.

Sam Adams Utopias For Sale (2023)

A proper place for a Utopias opening: a pickup tailgate

Where to Find Sam Adam Utopias For Sale

At the moment I write this post there are still 2023 Utopias from Sam Adams for sale. They are going fast though. So, where are Utopias for sale?

  • Total Wine – you can try to order through them, where you might find an option other than Total Wine.
  • Costco – if you have one in town it might be worth a shot to try – it’s how I was able to try some.
  • Rando Liquor store – you can look at this wine site as they list some locations you can snake one if you’re local. Call down to the good bottle shop/beer bar in your area, they MIGHT have acquired a bottle or two.
  • Some Dude on the Internet – I do not delve into the online trading of beer, but you might and will know better how to find a trader than I.

A Review of Sam Adam’s Utopias 2023

This week I plopped down the tailgate of my old-timer Toyota pickup and (thanks to a Perfect Pour listener, Wazzu) got to have my first taste of a Sam Adam’s Utopias.

I don’t know how to describe it.

There is cherry, barrel, wood – very well balanced.

One tends to get caught up in the price of a bottle ($200 to $500 or so) and the brain goes “Let’s see what two hundred dollars tastes like.” But I think it’s the wrong way to approach it.

When you factor in the amount of alcs in the beer, it is kind of amazing how easy to drink it is. You get the burn from it, and that’s the only resistance keeping you from drinking it like a small beer.

You are paying for the experience, the bottle, the lore, that’s for sure. It’s impossible to have something taste like $250 and that is what you’re looking for, so it can mess you up.

At the moment of writing this, there is a $280 bottle I found on Instacart, if you’re interested – there are many other places, like Total Wine and Costco, etc. – it would make a damn fine gift for the beer geek in your life.

Utopias is one of the fun stories and experiences of beer geeking, I am happy to have tried some and look to do it again.

Funny Beer Shirts

You, or someone you know, likes drinking beer. And likes wearing shirts.

Craft beer geeks, regular beer drinkers, women, men, all the people, love funny beer shirts. And they need a good drinking shirt.

If you find a beer shirt funny, I have picked out the funniest ones to me, a beer drinking geek.

These are funny mens or womens shirts for Christmas, Halloween, Saint Patricks, birthdays, or anytime gifts.

*Disclosure heads up: I am an affiliate of TeePublic and Amazon so it’s possible I might get a tiny percentage if you end up buying something.

I am here to help you shop some graphic tshirt action (hoodies and other merch too.

I will give you my description of the graphic tee so you can get an idea of what to expect. Then you do a quick check of the price, and see if you have a good gift, or shirt for yourself:

As you will see, there are other types of merchandise you can put the shirt design on (stickers, mugs, etc.), and you can change the color of most of them. Hopefully, TeePublic will offer you a sale price too.

More Funny Beer Shirts To Come

I will keep updating this post on a yearly basis when I find more beer shirts to share. So relax, grab a day beer. A drinking tee. And have a nice day with your beer shirts.

P.S. During the course of putting this post together, I noticed a lot of you people searching for funny beer shirts are also searching for funny shirts from Pole Brewing.

I had not heard of any Pole Brewing so I didn’t get it. But it turns out there is a shirt out that is North Pole Brewing, and now I get it. Find some different designs on Amazon.

Been wanting to find an Allagash White Sucks shirt somewhere, but haven’t found one. Might have to make it.

Oh, also, before you go, if you are looking for more beer gifts and items to maybe buy, I have a games for a beer garden post and gifts for a beer dude post to check out.
