Snake falls into margarita at Henrico restaurant
It’s a story you have to see to believe. Carletta Andrews said she’s traumatized after a snake fell from the ceiling of a Mexican restaurant in Henrico County and into her margarita.
It happened at the Patron Mexican Restaurant and Cantina in Sandston in the evening of April 16. In an exclusive interview with 8News Anchor Autumn Childress, Andrews shared that she and her husband had just finished their food when she felt something on her forehead.
“I leaned in to take a sip and I noticed something hit me in the forehead and I looked at my husband like what was that,” Andrews said. “When I turned around, I saw the snake in my margarita.”
“It was moving. It started wrapping around my straw,” she said.
The rest is sort of a blur for Andrews. She recalls restaurant workers trying to remove the baby snake with a stick, but she said another customer grabbed it and released it outside.

I think I would have freaked out a bit myself!

A baby snake (probably a garter snake) falling in one's drink is the stuff of silly movies.
But, then, I'm fine with snakes as long as I see them first. 
Decades ago, I experienced the best Tequila Sunrises of my life at a Holiday Inn bar/restaurant in Richmond. I've never had one like it nor been able to recreate it. Had a snake--even a baby--fallen into that drink, I might have been a bit more upset. LOL
