These are what remains of an ancient Mayan city in Mexico.

It is said that one powerful king drank 50 cups a day of a special drink from a golden cup. That drink was called…

chocolatl, the drink of the gods. Today we call it chocolate, but how is chocolate made?

It starts with the fruit of the cocoa tree.

Molinillo A Molinillo is a hand carved wooden hot chocolate beater from Mexico. You roll it back and forth in your hands to beat the chocolate into a frothy drink.
