They Took Away the One Thing Getting Me Through the Week
It wasn't my limes
Topo Chico is my adult beverage of choice. With or without vodka, it’s perfect. But always with lime — preferably two. That’s not negotiable. Out for dinner over the weekend, I heard something horrifying.
“We don’t have Topo Chico,” our waiter Carlos informed me in response to my Tito’s and Topo request.
“Sorry,” I asked, thinking I must have misunderstood.
What the Bubble Is Going On?
“Haven’t you heard? There is a shortage of Topo Chico. Aside from what’s already out there in stores, there is none to be found,” Carlos told me with empathy.
No I had not heard. His kind eyes told me he understood my panic.
