This is surely a bizarre and vivid way for the speaker to say they are very eager to drink a certain drink. "Teething" is the phase in an infant's early life when their first teeth begin to show... the infant is expected to eagerly chew things as part of the process. One meaning of the verb "to nurse" is to breast feed a baby, which can be painful when the baby is teething.
So the bizarre fun of this statement is the metaphor of a teething infant for a drink. Surely the speaker means to do the drinking, but the statement implies the opposite. It's a good statement, despite its complications. Hope that clarifies!

"To nurse a drink" means to keep it with you and take occasional sips from it for a long time. So it's a joke based on multiple meanings of the word "nurse."

@dongelev85 Gives you the most critical background. The teething joke is inspired by those multiple meanings.
