Always Check the Cup!
June 18th, 2007 | by Vinny |
My wife and I learned early on that we should always check the drinks they give your children at a restaurant. We had a bad experience with some sour milk. However, we did not get the Apple Juice/Margarita mix-up.
ANTIOCH, Calif. (AP) - Kim Mayorga was confused when her 2-year-old started making funny faces and pushing away the apple juice he had ordered at Applebee’s. The explanation came when she opened the lid of the sippy cup and was hit by the smell of tequila and Triple Sec.
The restaurant staff accidentally gave Julian Mayorga a margarita Monday. He grew drowsy and started vomiting a few hours later and was rushed to the hospital.
Would you sue? If your kid got sick, you might have to. I don’t know. I’d certainly make sure to retain an attorney just to hold my options open.

No, I wouldn’t sue. It seems like Applebees is being really cool - paying the medical bills, changing how they store stuff so the mistake won’t happen again.
