I’ll freely admit that I’m a big fan of good quality chocolate. I love it. I shouldn’t eat too much of it, of course, as it’s hardly conducive to weight loss..
While I was in Antigua Guatemala this week I went to the Choco Museo, which is close to the centre of the town.
They have a lovely little cafe in the courtyard which serves a range of chocolates and other drinks. I opted for the “Mayan” hot chocolate which comes out as:
- melted chocolate
- honey
- chilli powder
- hot milk
You mix everything together in your mug to make your own hot chocolate – of course with the chilli pepper you need to be careful that you only add enough to give the drink a taste and that you don’t overdo it.
