Fun Fact
The ancient Mayans and Aztecs valued cacao beans as currency and as a sacred food. Interestingly, cacao was not consumed in the form of chocolate as we know it today. Instead, these ancient civilizations prepared a bitter and frothy beverage by grinding roasted cacao beans and combining them with water, chili, vanilla, and honey. This traditional cacao drink held great esteem and was reserved for special occasions and religious ceremonies.
