Prosecutor Virginia Hayton said: "She was described as being fairly aggressive to them.
"She asked if she could just go home as she had made a fool of herself.
"She was then arrested."
The victim, who was downing alcopops at the house last summer, was said to be embarrassed because he had the "mickey took out of him".
Brian Williams, defending, said: "She has pleaded guilty at the first opportunity and it is a brave plea because no one can remember what actually happened that evening."
He added: "This is a very unusual case of its kind. One usually finds people facing these offences to be men with a predilection for young boys or girls.
"That is not the case here. This offence was committed when she was drunk and she has no interest in young men.
"She is not a paedophile.
"She was very very drunk and did something very very silly and now must face the consequences along with the heavy price she has already paid."
Sentencing, Judge Barbara Forrester said: "There is a significant disparity of age, a serious breach of trust and you had both drunk alcohol but I accept that you did not provide it to him.
"What happened after that, we will never know."
