When Mixed with water, Chile peppers, corneal, and other ingredients, this paste made a frothy, spicy chocolate drink. The Aztecs adopted cacao By 1400, the Aztec empire dominated a sizeable segment of Mesoamerica. The Aztecs traded with Maya & other peoples for cacao & often required that citizens and conquered peoples pay their tribute on cacao seeds a form of Aztec Money. Like the earlier Maya, the Aztecs also consumed their bitter chocolate drink seasoned with spices sugar was an agricultural product unavailable to the ancient Mesoamericans. Drinking chocolate was on important part of Maya and Aztec life Many people on classic period Maya society could drink chocolate at least on occasion although it was a particularly favored beverage for loayality.

Its use was reserved for the rating and priestly classes. In 1492 Columbus was given some of the cacao beans and took then back to Spain, but he didnt know how to process and ferment them. In 1519 Cortez descended upon the Aztecs were convinced that Quetzalcoatl had returned as prophesied and they tried to get him to leave by once again playing him with chocolate.

They took the beans and the process back to Spain. The Spanish added sugar and honey to the bitter liquid and then fell in love with it. As in the Americans, its use was reserved for member of the court. Chocolate was kept a secret by the Spanish court for almost a hundred years.
