Fun Fact! Chocolate was consumed as a drink rather than a bar
Hot chocolate was not something we were served in restaurants these days. Cocoa was brewed in both Aztec and Mexican cultures, but it was nothing like the hot chocolate we have today. It was primarily a bitter concoction that was frequently consumed at weddings and other special occasions. Many people used it as a medicine or as a base for other medications.
