Nov 12, 2016

Chocolate is the most popular treat among children and adults. For a long time it was believed that only men were indifferent to him, but scientists from the UK disproved this, as it turned out, myth.

As a result of the research, it turned out that half of all the women surveyed cannot imagine themselves without a bar of chocolate, among men such a sweet tooth turned out to be more- two thirds of the total number of participants in the experiment.

I wonder what they would say if they were asked not about a chocolate bar, but about a hot drink? In Russia, unfortunately, this question would baffle many - hot chocolate is rare on our table.

Maybe because we don't know much about him?

Origin story

Sponsors of the first cup hot chocolate became the legendary Maya. True, their drink was hot due to chili pepper (one of the ingredients of the drink), but in general, crushed cocoa beans were poured with cold water.

This recipe was later slightly modified by the Aztecs by adding sweet ingredients. History has preserved evidence that it was the favorite drink of Emperor Montezuma.

A recipe close to the modern one was born already in Europe: instead of chili, sugar was used, water was heated, and even cream was added.

What drink is called hot chocolate

This is a drink made from cocoa beans.. IN different countries adapted to do it in their own way, in accordance with national traditions. For example, the French have it liquid, similar to coffee. The Italians - thick, like sour cream.

However, in both cases, this is real chocolate, in which cocoa content (beans and butter) is between 55 and 75 percent.

These figures must be kept in mind when, under the brand of chocolate in bags, retail chains offer customers a mixture of various ingredients (read the label!), Very far from those from which a quality drink can be brewed.

Compound

Hot chocolate includes three essential components, these are:

  • cocoa beans;
  • milk;
  • sugar.

Is it possible to change something in this “trio”? Can. For example, milk is sometimes substituted boiled water if you want to make the drink "easier".

And cocoa beans, which are not so easy to get, can be replaced by a bar of chocolate. Of course, not the first one that came across, but bitter, dark, of high quality.

In addition to the "three whales" on which rests delicious drink, it sometimes includes vanilla, cinnamon, nuts, alcohol.

Benefit and harm

Hot chocolate in ancient times was called "healing", doctors prescribed it to their patients from the most various diseases. According to modern experts, chocolate is really useful:

  • improves memory;
  • enhances performance;
  • useful in the cold season as a general tonic;
  • helps to overcome depression;
  • activates brain functions.

With caution, it should be used by those who have an allergic reaction to chocolate.

Besides, do not drink this drink before bed- it excites the nervous system, which means that the risk of insomnia is high.
