Topo Chico Mineral Water

Locals love sparkling water from Mexico. Yes, you read that correctly. We drink water from Mexico as a mixer or a hangover cure. Here is the story:

In 1440 Moctezuma’s beautiful daughter suffered a terrible untreatable disease. After no conventional 1400s medical treatments healed her ailment, she travelled across Mexico to bathe and drink from the rumored healing waters of the Cerro del Topo Chico in Nuevo Leon – after some time in the spring she miraculously recovered and the legend of the Topo Chico began. They began bottling the water in 1895 and it’s now sold in Mexico, Texas and a few other states.
