This little drink called Ukon is to be consumed before drinking alcohol and it supposedly prevents a hangover. Made from mainly Ginger root it makes sense that it’s good for the belly before a hard night out. I’ve tried Ukon myself and I’m not sure if it works or not but for 200 JPY I guess it’s worth a try. It can be purchased at any convenience store or Kiosk.




There is also some day after stuff too. Monday, I had to drag the office lady back to life with a bottle of the stuff.
Do tell. I could have used that Sunday morning!!
I swear by this stuff! After a bottle of ukon, if I drink a bit on a night out, I don’t have a hangover at all. If I drink to excess, it definitely takes the edge off the next morning. Maybe it’s all the placebo effect, but it works for me anyway.
