Rusa (literally means russian)
This is one of my favorite non alcoholic beverages. For moments when I am dehydrated due to fun nights in the city.
-Tall Glass
-Salt on the rim
-Ice
-2 limes
-Mineral water or seltzer water. The best I have had in México are Topo Chico and Peñafiel.
Perfect for hangovers. Well, at least mine.
Soda/ Seltzer water / Sparkling Water
Topo Chico
You know people like to be ‘chic’ with their green italian San Pellegrino seltzer water? Well Topo Chico is equally as good and 100% Mexican. The water is extracted at the skirts of the dormant volcano el Cerro de Topo Chico in Northern Mexico

Tragedy strikes the tumblr office.
Saw this in the New Yorker and laughed.
Interestingly (at least I think so), this cartoon is juxtaposed with an amazing story of Jamaica’s war lord Christopher Coke and the massacre at Tivoli Gardens after the U.S. wanted to extradite him.
In the U.S., Coke stood charged in federal court of trafficking in narcotics and firearms; in Jamaica, he was known as the country’s most powerful “don,” a community leader who also runs a criminal enterprise. He lived in Tivoli, where everyone called him “president,” and, since 2001, Jamaican police had not been able to enter the neighborhood without his permission. Coke was so powerful that Prime Minister Bruce Golding spent months resisting the extradition order. But in early May, 2010, under heavy international political pressure, Golding authorized Coke’s arrest. In response, Coke converted Tivoli and nearby Denham Town into a personal fortress. Barricades of rubble and barbed wire sprang up across major intersections. Armed sentries took up posts around Tivoli’s perimeter. It looked as though Coke were preparing for war with the Jamaican state.
Seltzer…seltzer, indeed.

Just drinking seltzer in the dark
- Anthony: I guess you heard about the seltzer water thing. That was the last big...you know.
- Marty: It was flat?
- Anthony: Yeah, like when somebody doesn't screw the top back on.
- Marty: So what'd she do?
- Anthony: Well, she started screaming about the bubbles, how there were no bubbles, so she started boiling the seltzer water and when the water started bubbling she poured the boiling water back into the seltzer bottle, which was plastic and started to melt and kind of melted into her hand where she was holding it and she had to go to the emergency room with third degree burns. And on the way home, whenever Mama and I asked her a question she'd tell us to stop giving her the third degree and she'd laugh kind of like hysterically. So she's not what you'd call recovered.
