Immagino che il proprietario originale l’abbia acquistata in un negozio di souvenir a Stoccarda. Ma è per un tipo specifico di bevanda o è semplicemente come una tazza per il caffè? Sono francese e in alcuni posti si beve la birra in bicchieri di ceramica come questo, quindi mi chiedevo se è lo stesso in Germania. Lo chiedo perché come francese devo essere un completo stronzo a riguardo e usare solo tazze/bicchieri adeguati al tipo di bevanda che sto consumando.

Salut my francophone friend! I’d say this was for hot chocolate, honestly? Definitely not beer, which is drunk out of special glasses you can be French about by the way. Maaaaybe coffee?
I’d say tea or hot wine would fit in. Definitely not beer.
But at the end of the day, it is not meant to be drunk out of, anyway. It’s a cup for decoration and touristy souvenir purpose.
This is for hot chocolate
Glühwein from the Christmas market most likely. Hot wine with seasonal spices.
Cities usually provide special cups for those during the Christmas markets with their scenery on it
It’s for hot chocolate.
Especially good with a splash of brandy or rum and some whipped cream on top.
A perfect winter drink. 🙂
From the form of the cup, it’s smaller and higher than you regula coffee cip, I’d guess it for chocolate or “Pharisäer”.
That IS with alcohol. Pharisäer is topped with whpped cream, to hide the smell of alcohol.
Google shows a number of cups that look similar to that.
I think it’s a Stuttgart tourist version of the “Walter Pharisäer Becher”. At least it looks very similar to one.

The cup her looks different.
It a specialty from Frisia,
According to a traditional story, Pharisee coffee was invented in the 19th century on the North Frisian island of Nordstrand – as part of a ruse. According to the story, the guests at a baptism wanted to hide from the particularly ascetic pastor that they were drinking alcohol in his presence. So they served hot coffee with a shot of rum and a topping of cream to prevent the rum from evaporating and the typical smell of alcohol. The pastor, of course, was served a hot drink without the rum added. Nevertheless, the fraud was noticed, which the pastor is said to have acknowledged with the exclamation “Oh, you Pharisees!”. And this is how the newly created hot drink got its name.

Pharisäer is used in Germany instead of “hypocrite”.
