Though coffee isn’t a reliable hangover cure, it may help heavy drinkers anyway by protecting against long-term liver damage.Scientists asked 125,580 people about their intake of coffee, tea, and alcoholic beverages, then tracked them for an average of 14 years.

The risk of alcohol-related liver cirrhosis (which is usually irreversible) was reduced by 40 percent in those drinking one to three cups of coffee daily and by 80 percent in those drinking four or more cups.

Its gotta be better than Red Bull and Vodka.
