If you haven’t noticed yet, I’ve got a thing for chocolate. I love the good stuff. So when the Cabaret Brewed Chocolate folks asked me if I wanted to try their new warm beverage, I had to know more. How many calories are in this? Is it good for you? Brewing chocolate – Why would you want to do that? I’d never heard of such a thing.
Here’s what I found out from the makers of Cabaret.
What is Brewed Chocolate?
“We brew whole raw cacao beans in water to extract the flavor and essence – much the same as coffee is brewed from coffee beans. Then we sweeten this wonderful liquid with organic evaporated cane juice and reduce it into concentrated syrup. You stir this syrup into hot water – by the teaspoon – to instantly create a small cup of brewed chocolate.”
“We all know that chocolate does make people feel good,” says Brewed Chocolate creator, Rob Polevoi. “But the idea here was to say, ‘How can we take all of the best things out of chocolate from an emotional and physical health standpoint and allow chocolate to be presented as a basic beverage – an alternative to coffee, to tea, or even to wine, for a modern lifestyle?’”
The result – a natural, low-calorie drink (24 calories per serving) with almost no fat. And how does it taste? It’s hard to describe. Not really chocolatey. More like a cane juice sweetened chocolate tea. You feel like you’re getting to know the cocoa bean flavor intimately – in a whole new way. It’s good, and calming.
