Single Origin Nicaraguan Drinking Chocolate
Long before chocolate came in bars, it was the drink of European royalty, poured from silver pots in the courts of Spain and France and sipped in the fashionable chocolate houses of 18th-century London.
Ours follows that tradition: real ground chocolate, not cocoa powder, made from scratch with just two ingredients, Nicaraguan cacao and organic cane sugar. It melts into a drink far richer and silkier than any hot cocoa mix.
Three recipes are provided, so you can make it your way: a thick, European-style sipping chocolate worthy of a palace, a classic drinking chocolate, or a cozy American-style hot chocolate for the marshmallow loyalists.
P.S. for history buffs: Europeans were latecomers to chocolate. The Olmec were enjoying cacao thousands of years earlier, and the tradition spread to the Maya, the Aztecs, and other Indigenous peoples, who whipped it into a frothy, bitter, fortifying drink. By the time the Spanish tasted it at Moctezuma’s fabled court, it was already ancient. We chose our name, Xocolatl, to honor that history.
