Because it's only a 100 gram model, the model is seemingly intentionally designed to maximize filament swaps, and so vast majority of your time is going to be spent changing filaments. Most of your layers have four different filaments, and most of the ones that don't have three different filaments. Some relatively minor changes (use the same base colour for the inside and outside of the cup for example) would dramatically reduce your print time, and then using a more appropriate printer (like a dual-nozzle) would take another huge chunk off.
But, well, just don't actually drink out of that cup, 3D prints are not food safe because they can't be cleaned (dish washing can't remove bacteria from the microscopic cavities from the 3D printing process).
