It's spelled "Tiedy Bear" on the front, and I have always wondered myself. I've got a pair- where the hell are these things from?

Hey Martiki,
I know without a doubt that the "Tiedy Bear Cocktail" mugs were sold at Love's Restaurants in So California. My wife remembers them from the mid-seventies. The Love's she used to frequent with her family sold them with or without the cocktail - in fact, she says she remembers there being one at the cashier's station filled with lollipops for the kiddies! She still has one that a family member got there and she somehow ended up with. A while back we discovered that Tiedy, pronounced "Teddy" referred to the brand of alcohol used to make the Tiedy Bear Cocktail. Hope that sheds some light on the subject...
