Hot chocolate is not just a beverage, it is an ancient tradition that connects with the deepest roots of the Mayan culture. Through sacred rituals and unique preparations, this drink symbolized a divine bond, prosperity and community unity. Today, you can explore this living heritage in museums like Choco-Story, where each sip takes you on a journey through time, connecting past and present.
