A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

But if iced coffee tastes great, what about hot beer? We do have hot wine (mulled wine).

Welcome to German Christmas markets, where you can buy and (without irony) enjoy hot, spiced beer. And wine. And several other beverages.

Okay that’s amazing. I need to visit at Christmas time! My family is German but I’ve never been to Germany!

Just make sure you go to a nice one (I'm not of any help, I'm not the Christmas market type of person), some are really touristy/fake.

In the Wind in the Willows they mention mulled ale, so it is a thing or at least it was in 1908.
