The Signal

Bartender Sarah Krueger was hoping to raise awareness about women’s health issues at Yuzu in Lakewood, Ohio, when she introduced a new cocktail, the Even Can’t Literally -- a red berry margarita sporting a tampon applicator as a garnish. She told WJW that $1 from the sale of each drink goes to the Domestic Violence and Child Advocacy Center in Cleveland, and patrons can decide whether they want the garnish included or not. Critics were quick to complain on social media, but bar owner Dave Bumba defended the promotion: “This is a small way to bring awareness to real good causes that we are behind.” Bumba also assured customers that the health department had OK’d putting the feminine hygiene product in the drinks.
