Headline: The Yummy History of Hot Chocolate (National Cocoa Day)
Caption: That cold winter night staple has a long and intricate history. The Mayans, in what is now Mexico, were likely the first civilization to drink chocolate cold way back in 500 BC. Made from ground cocoa seeds, the frothy Mayan chocolate drink also included cornmeal and chili peppers mixed in water.
