It's trying to quote Greta Garbo, who said:

"Give me a whiskey, ginger ale on the side. And don't be stingy, baby."

Those were the first words she ever said on-screen, in "Anna Christie".

1. Maybe its a paraphrase
Maybe the person doesn't like whiskey and ginger but they didn't have room for a disclaimer.

4. I sell booze. I know what everyone drinks.
It's an instinct. :hi:

2. No, it's not trying to do that :).
You're right, that is the quote -- but mine happens to be bourbon -- without ginger ale on the side.

Cheers.
