Directions
Cacao Nib Masa Drink, Fashioned after Aztec and Mayan hot chocolate thickened with masa Very different; posted by request , 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 , Fashioned after Aztec and Mayan hot chocolate thickened with masa Very different; posted by request
