Cacao Nib Masa Drink

    Sorry, but for this to be a real traditional cacao drink, it would have to be made only with water, as the Aztecs had no milk (or cows for that matter). That said your recipe still looks very interesting, but as a sweetener I'd suggest that you use piloncillo or Mexican raw sugar cane cones rather than honey. The flavor is really unique.
