Angel shots are a cocktail that isn’t actually a cocktail at all. It’s something a patron can order from the bartender or server if they’re feeling unsafe with who they are dining with. More and more restaurants are instituting the idea and it costs absolutely nothing. A discreet sign is hung in the women’s restroom that says something to the effect of: “Is your Tinder date not going as planned? Order an Angel Shot and we will discreetly assist you.”

Ordering it neat or straight up means the guest needs an escort to their car. On the rocks means the server should call a taxi or an Uber. Ordering it with lime or a twist means the police should be called. Angel Shots are free, but their value is immeasurable. They might even be more impressive than hooks.
