I can just see the poor waiter trying to execute all these shenanigans just so some guy can try to pick up a woman.

I can't imagine. That would be an "interesting" position. I'd probably laughing on the inside.

Accept the drink, offer to share it equally with her friends, take a sip, say, "Oops, sorry for the backwash!", go on to enjoy the rest of the drink.

No man ever is going to do this. Ever.

Embellishment? Lol.

As a woman, I couldn't care less if I or another woman at the table is sent a drink. Jealousy? Seriously? Get over it.
