My grandmother always gave me a teaspoon of sugar water (with plenty of sugar, not some mamby-pamby diet-type solution). Worked like a charm. Now, about this next part - I don't think I'm making this up. I dated an ER doc many moons ago and I once mentioned this sugar water thing to him. He said it actually made some sense because (if I remember correctly) ER rooms use glucose for hiccups.
