Since the earliest days of the temple the animal to sacrifice was given a drink as it arrived on the north side of the altar where it was killed. Right after it drank, it was killed.

They made the animal drink from a gold cup. Babl. Talmud Tamid 29a

This was foretelling Jesus being offered wine mixed with myrrh.

On the eve of the Passover, when the Passover was on a Friday, the evening daily sacrifice would happen earlier than normal, about noon time. Jesus arrives at Golgotha about noon time. (third hour Mk 15,25) On this very special Passover Jesus is given a drink at the same time the animal is given the drink. Whether the animal drank the wine or not depends on the animal itself, but Jesus didn't.

This also fulfilled the prophecy:

They gave me also for my meat; and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink. Ps 69,21

All those gathered on Golgotha had a view of the temple court as well as the north side of the altar. (see link below)
