pour a drink from a drinks cabinet? where is the joke in this sentence?

[pomme007]

Hallo,

I am watching a British TV-Show. A woman is obviously flirting with a man and saying:"Very grown up, pouring me a drink from a drinks cabinet." I can not understand the joke in this sentence. Does anyone know something about that?

It's not a real rib-tickler [="very funny joke"]

The ambiguity is between pouring [from a bottle] a drink [and the bottle was kept] in the drinks cabinet and pouring a drink from [=out of] the drinks cabinet.

so it is not a joke, but what about "very grown up", has this anything to do with pouring drinks?

[bhaisahab]

The fact that he keeps his drinks in a drinks cabinet is seen as grown up by the girl.

I was looking for a rather weak double entendre, but I'm sure you're right.

I can't see anything funny in it, though.

There isn't, it's not intended to be funny.
