Great Question. There are many old wives tales that involve being scared or pressing acupuncture points.

In my experience the best way to stop hiccups is to slowly, and I mean slowly, drink a warm glass of water. You should drink very slow and breathe through your nose. Keep your chin down as you drink. It works!

The best known way to get rid of hiccups is to hold your breath. I found out recently that it helps to plug your ears while holding your breath for at least 20 seconds. It almost always works. Another way is to quickly drink a glass of water.
