The Pharisee is a special hot coffee beverage from Northern Germany.
Recipe
The base is strong coffee with sugar, completed by 4cl of brown rum. The drink is covered by whipped cream.
Name
In the 19th century, there was a pastor on the island of Nordstrand who was a strict teetotaller. He christened a peasant’s child and was afterwards invited home by the family. Everyone had a cup of coffee with whipped cream on top, but the pastor's drink was served without alcohol. When he realised that the others drank alcohol, he shouted out: “Oh, you Pharisees!”
