A toddler girl staggered, threw up and began kissing everything after a North Carolina restaurant served the 2-year-old girl an alcoholic drink, her parents say.
The family says it was dining at a ‘Texas Roadhouse’ in Asheville last week, when the little girl was supposed to be served Cranberry juice.
Tiffany and Derek Gilliam took their daughter Gabriela to the chain restaurant to celebrate Derek’s birthday.
Instead, the Gilliams say the toddler was given Sangria, which is typically a mixture of wine, brandy and fruit.
The girl’s parents say the child was staggering and kissing everything after telling them her drink tasted funny.
The child also began throwing up and was taken to the hospital and diagnosed with accidental alcohol ingestion.
“Now I’m at Mission Hospital because my innocent little two year old is drunk,” Tiffany Gilliam wrote on Facebook on Friday, when the incident happened.
A Texas Roadhouse spokesman apologized, calling the mix-up an honest mistake.
The restaurant spokesperson pointed out that the family stayed to finish what turned out to be a complimentary meal before calling 911.
