For those people who do enjoy a bit of tequila though (wherever they may be), they're about to be very disappointed indeed because there's a shortage of the stuff on the horizon.
Thanks to the sheer success of the tequila industry and a lack of agave plants, there just isn't enough tequila to go around to meet the ever-growing demand.
Francisco Soltero, director of strategic planning at Patrón Spirits International, told Reuters that the growth of the industry had "overtaken" them.
Well that doesn't sound good at all.
And if you were hoping that this shortage was just a short-term thing that would sort itself in a few months, think again.
This issue could go on as long as 2021.
That's a whole other four years we'd have to be waiting for our (not so) beloved tequila to be readily available all over the world again.
And in the meantime, that of course means that tequila prices are probably set to rise.
What a dark time... for some.
