Antioch, Calif. - 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.

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 the vice president for Apple Bay East Inc.

The Mayorgas will be reimbursed for their medical bills, and the franchise group's restaurants will no longer serve apple juice and margaritas in similar containers.

Mayorga said her son is now doing fine.

She said the company has been very apologetic and offered free meals, but she added, "If they think I'm going back there, they're ridiculous."

I don't blame her for not going back. Neither would I.

If that had been one of my children I would of took him to the hospital immediately. (not a few hours later) Alcohol in a child that young could be deadly. I'm glad he is ok.
