When you order a cranberry juice for your 2-year-old daughter and the server brings her a glass containing a dark red beverage, you probably wouldn’t think to sample the drink to make sure she hadn’t been given a glass full of boozy sangria.
But that’s exactly what happened to a family in Asheville, NC, recently during a visit to their local Texas Roadhouse restaurant.
The family says their daughter began drinking the “cranberry” juice but complained that it tasted odd. The parents took a taste and confirmed their kid wasn’t just being a picky eater.
“Two year old drinking sangria,” said the dad to WLOS-TV [via Eater.com]. “It was supposed to be cranberry juice.”
The girl’s mom says her daughter was “staggering and she was kissing everything” after imbibing the sangria.
The youngster was taken to the hospital and checked out by a physician.
“I had to rub her belly the whole night and she slept with us because I was scared she might not wake up,” said the mom. “That she’d choke on her throw up and not wake up. It was the most horrible feeling ever.”
The restaurant apologized to the family, claiming it was an honest mistake, and refunded them the cost of their whole meal.
