There will be no fiesta for fans of a certain alcoholic cooler, which was yanked after glass fragments were found in the booze.

On Thursday, the Manitoba Liquor Control Commission and other provincial regulators across Canada announced that Woody’s Mexican Lime Vodka Cooler would be yanked from shelves, after inspectors found the product could contain shards of glass.

The recall, which was launched after a warning from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency, impacts the 330-mL beverages sold at MLCC stores.
