10Drink Water Upside Down

While there is no official study proving this, drinking water upside down from the other side of the cup would help with hiccups. The main reason is that it can change the breathing pattern. Firstly, add water to a half-full of a cup, then hold the further edge against your upper lip’s bottom. Keep the upper lip at the exterior tip of the cup by bending forward.
