Thanks to the stuffy looking dude to the left (Hernan Hernandez Cortes), you can partake in a modern version of the "Elixir Of The Gods" right here in Calgary, and we're the only game in town that makes it! A true drinking chocolate is not made with cocoa powder or melted chocolate (which has sugar, vanilla and other additives), but rather pure ground cocoa beans, and a touch of corn starch (yes you read it right) as a thickener. Corn starch has roots all the way back to Aztec times, when xocolatl (as it was called back then) was made by grinding cocoa beans and maze before frothing it with boiling water.
Voted Best Hot Chocolate in Calgary 2011, 2012, 2013
We could tell you that we have the best, but the results of the past few year's Calgary Hot Chocolate Festivals "walk the talk". There have been as many as 30 other vendors involved in the competition at any time, and in all cases the second place vender never even came close.
Many Options!
We offer several different varieties of drinking chocolate. They all start with the base OMG, and then have carefully selected combinations of spices added. Some even include a it of cayenne pepper to kick it up a notch. We even have an espresso drinking chocolate for you coffee lovers out there!To view variants or to purchase this product follow the link below to the manufacturer's website:
