They want you to lick the cup clean. Similar to licking the plate clean. To show that you like it. However, people reuse those cups. So, it sounds gross. If I lick a cup like that, it would be if I do it myself with a cup I use daily at home. Lmfao.

tbh thats not a good way of deciding which one is the best. Only thing that really matters is taste, at least me to me. If it taste good enough i dont mind a bit of mess or hassle. It doesn't have to be an every day drink akin to a morning coffee. It can be something you have on occasion as a treat, especially considering the sugar content in these drinks, so the practicality of walking around with it isnt a factor.

Looks like an Italian hot chocolate (part custard) that Carluccios (RIP) used to do in small cups as it was incredibly rich. It was awesome esp when you dipped in a croissant or some such.
