Best cure for hiccups, 100% success rate
Get some one to place the palms of their hands over the entrance to your ears. Not too hard, just enough to make a light air tight seal.

Now drink a glass of water, take as big mouthfuls as you can and try to swallow each one in one go (fnarr fnarr)

Because of the pressure seal over your ears, the swallowing mechanism rebalances the pressure within your ear and throat canal and removes the hiccups. If it doesn't work first time then the other person is not holding your ears tight enough.
