as long as the kid wasn't slurring or threatening to kick his little brother's a*(, and it isn't a daily thing, this isn't anything other than distraction news.

I just wonder if we have a parrothead in the making.

Totally a distraction. . .gave me a break from the housework this morning.

Exactly....... but since I am not the parent.... the kid needs to learn to pace himself!

OK question? since Tequila has a "burn" to adults ,wouldn't
the kid push back the cup after the first taste?

How does the salt stick to the rim of a sippy cup?

Maybe it was Silver Patron...goes down a little smoother!

No really, the article read:
The apple juice and margarita mix were stored in identical plastic bottles, and the manager mistakenly grabbed the margarita container to pour the boy's drink, said Randy Tei, vice president for Apple Bay East Inc., which owns the franchise restaurant and nine other Applebee's in the San Francisco Bay area.

Do they have already premixed margaritas there? Otherwise, the manager would have to mistakenly grab the tequila and triple sec too!

I've made the mistake of grabbing the tequila once or twice...

That's what I didn't get about this story...I've worked in many restaurants. The alcohol is NEVER in the mix. We always had to add it. Ummm...and what about color? Lime green (or even good true lime juice) Margarita mix is a far cry from apple juice. I think something's fishy.

that's what I was thinking......I KNOW the alcohol isn't in the mix here, because drinks have to be metered....but I wondered if that was just a Utah thing....
