Krystal wants to give consumers a tasty new way to nurse their next hangover with its new [Hangover Krystal](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hangover-breakfast-burger).

Available morning, noon, and night, the new Hangover Krystal is a [breakfast-style burger](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/honest-smash-grab-breakfast-menu) inspired by the classic bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich. Krystal's version starts with a signature Krystal burger, topped with a freshly cracked egg, [strips of bacon, cheese](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doublestack-egg-sandwich), and onions. The result is a greasy, but savory breakfast combo that can be enjoyed on the go. To make it a full meal, you can get a Hangover Krystal combo, which features two Hangover Krystals and a small order of tots.

The new Hangover Krystal will be available from participating locations across the Southeast.
