A 12-year old was accidentally served the adult version with rum at a Livonia Outback Steakhouse, according to a report from WJBK-TV, FOX 2 News, who spoke to the preteen who said he knew something was wrong because his drink didn’t taste normal.
The daiquiri contained rum and the youngster took a few big swallows of it before he got, what he told FOX 2, was a funny feeling, saying his head started to hurt and his heart was racing.
The family says they immediately asked the server to confirm the mistake with the bartender, who did. FOX 2 adds that the restaurant apologized and comped the bill. Outback corporate also released a statement to FOX 2, saying, “We take this situation very seriously and are thankful that the child involved was not seriously harmed. We have taken the appropriate disciplinary action and all our bar and staff has been retrained.”
As a precaution, the family took the boy to the hospital where he was given Tylenol and told to rest. And, yes, the family tells FOX 2 that he did have his first hangover the next day.
