try not giving her anything to eat for a while, but make sure she drinks plenty of water
then if all she throws up is the water I suggest getting her to the vet
if she stops throwing up after a day, then start introducing small amounts of food again, and if she starts throwing up food again, try changing what she is eating.
if nothing works, take her to the vet

Witholding food for a while is a good suggestion, it allows the stomach to calm down. I'd also recommend keeping an eye on the litterbox to make sure that nothing weird is going on there. For example, if she also has diarrhea she could get a little dehydrated, but if she's having trouble making poops it could be a whole other set of issues. Also, keep an eye on her behavior. Is she lethargic or acting funny in any other way? Also, is she acting as if she's in pain in any way? Head down, pacing, hunched? If the answer to any of those is yes, I'd recommend a call to the vet right away.
