韓國推出全球首款緩解宿醉雪糕
South Korea is Asia's hardest drinking country, so it isn't surprising that the hangover cure industry is worth around $125 million. The industry has introduced pills, cosmetics and even soups that promise to fix all that ails you. But, finally one new item is making hangovers quite delicious.
韓國是亞洲飲酒情況最嚴重的國家，因此宿醉產業的價值達到了1億2500萬美元也就不是什麼新奇事情了。該行業引入了藥丸、化妝品甚至是湯，來保證解決人們所有不舒服的情況。不過，最新的一種產品可以使得宿醉變得非常美味。A South Korean convenience store chain has introduced a hangover-curing ice cream bar.
日前，韓國一家連鎖便利店推出了一款能治療宿醉的雪糕。The Gyeondyo-Bar is a grapefruit flavored ice cream bar with a bit of oriental raisin tree fruit juice.
Gyeondyo-bar是一種葡萄柚味的雪糕，其中含有少量的枳椇果汁。
The raisin juice is the active ingredient, and has been considered a South Korean hangover treatment since the 1600s, when it was listed in a medical book as a way to smooth away hangovers.
枳椇汁是一種有效成分，自17世紀起就被人們視爲一種韓國的宿醉療法，那時它就被列入醫書，作爲一種消除宿醉的方法。And if it really works, the little bar could potentially help out a ton of hungover South Koreans.
如果這種物質真的有效，那麼這種小小的雪糕就有可能幫助許多宿醉的韓國人。South Koreans drink 12.3 liters of booze a year. That led to nearly $8b in lost productivity, medical costs and early deaths.
韓國人一年要喝掉12.3公升的酒，這導致該國在生產力、醫藥費及早逝方面要損失近80億美元。The ice cream bar will only be available in South Korea, which means that the rest of the world needs to get on creating a delicious concoction like this.
該種雪糕只會在韓國提供使用，這意味着世界其他地區需要自行發明像這樣美味的混合物。
