I dunno... Leaving it on the counter is pretty much the only thing you could do at that point. I mean... you could have tossed it onto her lap... which would have probably gotten you fired. Or you could have asked her where she wanted you to put it, which would have probably resulted in a snarky remark about not having appendages and whether you see that there's a cup holder on her wheel chair or not. And feeding her pretty much wouldn't be in your job description at all, hopefully.
Heh.. maybe it's the fact that I've been exposed to a lot of cliche' about people with disabilities, but I wonder if it would have been a good idea to just hold the drink out to her expectantly and pretend you didn't even notice she didn't have arms and legs. That might have been PC even.
