It seems a probable case is she misunderstood or misheard what was being said to her as "she needs to finish the drink" and complied with the request she thought was being given to her.

Heck, even as a hearing person, if someone told me I can't have an open beverage in a space (alcoholic or not), finishing it seems like a reasonable way to be rid of it.
