I am trying to complete the Taste Test Quest and I cannot get Hemet Nesingway to take the taste. When i click/select him then click the 'Jungle Punch Sample' I get a Invalid Target (in red ) on my screen. But the other two Hadrius and Tamara complete with out issue. I asked some other ppl and they said they didn't have an issue. I was wondering if there was another quest i needed to complete? Or maybe you have suggestions. I cleared the cache in wow and rebooted my pc. I have disabled all AddOns and abandoned and retook the quest. I still can't get him to drink this stuff. Please help I'm ready to scream. I'm on a horde toon Mage lvl 80 on the Dalaran server.
Thanks

What to do
Description
And now for the moment of truth! <Grimbooze chuckles.> I've always wanted to say that. Normally, I'd debut a new drink at a banquet, but we can't have one in the middle of the jungle. Instead, just take samples to a few trusted friends and return with their comments. Let's see, we'll definitely want Hemet Nesingwary's opinion, and Hadrius Harlowe's, too. They're here in camp. You'll want to head over to Lakeside Landing, near the center of the Basin and offer Tamara Wobblesprocket a taste.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Rhino Mastery: The Kill
Now that we know where to find Farunn, all that remains is the battle against the great beast. Are you ready to take on this rhino, <name>? For all the spirit's blustering, I'm certain it was telling the truth about the beast's strength.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- In Search of Bigger Game
Well, <name>, you've certainly proven your mettle as a hunter of all kinds of game animals -- rhinos, cats, and crocolisks. For some members of the expedition, these creatures are sufficient to test their hunting skills, but others, like myself, crave larger challenges.
