This is a list of notable chocolate drinks.
Chocolate is a processed, typically sweetened
food produced from the seed of the tropical Theobroma cacao tree. Its earliest documented use is by the
Olmecs of south central Mexico around 1100 BC. The majority of
Mesoamerican people made chocolate beverages, including the
Maya and
Aztecs,[1] who made it into a beverage known as xocolātl[ʃoˈkolaːt͡ɬ], a
Nahuatl word meaning "bitter water".
