There is a new shot being served at restaurants and bars but it doesn't contain alcohol. This is something that should be implemented all over and should be encouraged. This shot is to notify your server that you are in need of some help because you don't feel comfortable with the person you are with.

Whether it be while on a blind date or someone from online who isn't who they said they were. This is a campaign to protect females and males from sexual violence and abuse. There has been other tactics like asking for someone from code word like asking for Angela, Rachelle or Jennifer at the bar when something just doesn't feel right.

You can ask for the shot in three different ways to show the seriousness of the situation. Code words so that they can make sure you are safe and nothing goes wrong.

Ordering the shot Neat: You will have someone escort you to your car

Ordering with Ice: The bartender will call you a taxi, Uber or Lyft to make sure you get home safely.

Ordering with a Lime: The bartender will call the police without any question.

This is important to remember just in case you are ever in a situation if you or you and a group of friends need help. This will help a lot of people stay out of danger and give people the opportunity to not be scared of reaching out and it back firing on them.

Dating apps and online interaction has increased over the years and it's hard to know when someone you've never met is telling the truth. The sexual violence and abuse rates keep increasing so the angel shot is something we can use to not also spread awareness but give those people who need help the most to be able to access it.
