5 mins prepServes 4

Enjoy your churros or pan de rancho with a cup of frothy chocolate de agua. Different than the milk based Mexican hot chocolate, chocolate de agua is water-based, therefore thinner but with a richer, bittersweet flavor of the chocolate. A great drink to dunk your favorite pan dulce in.
