How to Make Xocolatl (Ancient Aztec Cocoa Drink)
Hey Everyone,
Today I'm showing you how to make Xocolatl. I first learned about this drink when I was in Costa Rica staying at an organic chocolate farm. It is a very unique drink and is somewhat similar to hot cocoa although it can be enjoyed hot or cold.
The chocolate farm I stayed at:
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups water
4 tbs cocoa nibs (cocoa powder)
2 tbs sugar
1 tsp pepper flakes (or jalapeno)
pinch of salt
splash of vanilla extract
Note: In the title card of the video, I misspelled the name of the dish and I unfortunately cannot change it. The correct spelling is xocolatl, not xocoatl. I already fixed the name of the dish in the title of the video and the thumbnail. Thank you for understanding.

How To Make The Aztec Elixer
The Aztec elixer, a cocktail with smoke from the inclusion of Mezcal. This recipe was hand selected by Jennifer, someone that wouldn't touch Mezcal two years ago and is now finding the smokey flavor desirable.
Some of the base could be confused with a margarita or daiquiri style with the lime juice, triple sec and a bit of a sweetener (in this case, honey). The grapefruit juice brings out additional neat tartness and the smoke follows through as one of the more memorable parts of this shooter.
The crazy thing is... this shooter could be a cocktail itself!
