There is blurring here that might be caused by the notorious 'night scene mode' many cameras have. This mode combines flash with a long exposure. It causes all sorts of weird photos with crisp flash illuminated objects mixed with light sources (or reflections) that get blurred and look strange.
I must say as looking to the right hand side of the photograph there appears to be the same phenominom (bo-bo-boo-bo-bo) so im not entirely convinced that as mystery shopper says it isnt some problem witht he flash, exposure... or if its a non digital camera... double exposure
but alas im no expert... and far be it from me to say if its genuine or not... personally i think its some sort of photographical error...

I must agree, I don't think it is anything paranormal, but it's a good example of a strange photograph. Must have been some powerful stuff in that glass :)
Given the lighting in the background, since I don't know what's actually in the glass, I'll suggest that it might be the effervesce of the drink catching the light from whatever is illuminating the background. Or possibly a small water droplet illuminated by same on the lens.
