"Chocolate" is a concept that in different eras meant completely different products made on the basis of cocoa beans. It was also a cold tart drink, a sweet drink with the addition of spices and milk, and, of course, a solid product - bar chocolate.
Chocolate is actively used in the preparation of alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails.
