A drink with very Low Hangover Index. 
Öresunds Breeze. 



Recommended for it's low hangover index, or whatever it's called.
 I mean, I got plastered on it recently, and woke up the next day with no hangover at all.
I'm sure it was a next day, not two days later, I've checked the calendar.



It contains Mango Absolut 50ml (unflavored Absolut will do, it' just we had a mango one, unflavored probably better)
Limes and Lemons (like a halflime per drink and a big slice of lemon)
White Grapefruit Juice (about 200ml)
Sprite (50ml) and
Frozen Lingonberries. Handfull will do.


I dont think you can abuse with lingonberries, and if you've hurled too much of them, just skip the lemon.



Hurl lingonberries in a highball glass, (Any other glass will do, as long as it is not martini glass coz its tiny and looks weird)
 You may smash some of them lingonberries with a spoon, but leave some unsmashed too.
Fill the glass with ice cubes, pour 50ml of vodka in, throw lemons and place limes in there, add juice and finish with a dash of sprite to give it a bit of fizziness without using a shaker, which is a hassle unless you are payed for it.
 Stir little bit, so unsmashed lingonberries start floating between icecubes.

And it turns out all nice and refreshing drink, no surprise.
Here comes my point: we had no hangover after drinking loads of it. In all fairness, yes, we did get pretty wasted on these freaking Oresund's Breezes

Oresund's Breeze  Low Hangover Index explained scientifically (but shortly)

 Further research on the nature of hangovers explained the magic of hangoverfree Sunday. Let me introduce tree pillars hangover stands on
 In brief, alcohol causes a high vitamin expenditure by your body. The most depleted vitamins are A, of group B and Vitamin C. Anxiety, dizziness and disorientation occurring in the morn, owe partly to the lack of vitamins, not by the alcohol itself.
 Lingonberry, it turns out, has all of them vitamins, and works better then a vitamin tablet, because they better absorbed from the berry than from the tab. Grapefruit also contains fair amount of vitamins of the required groups.

Another major contributor to hangover is, dehydration, so 250ml of non fizzy juice per every shot of booze does the trick.
The third is the alcohol itself, or more precisely, impurities in it. Admiringly distilled Swedish vodka will have less impurities than a dubious rocket fuel that you may get served in a club or, actually, any brown spirit of decent quality.



Please notice, that forementioned brands did not provide the author with money or free merchandise. Neither did swedish lingonberry farmers and pickers, producers of limes, lemons, grapefruits, highball glasses and icecubes.

This drink been spontaneously invented and mixed in Malmo, and for the slight resemblance to Sea Breeze with vodka and cranberries, I would call it Oresunds Breeze.
