Rima de chocolate
Traditional Spanish Rhyme
Preparing a cup of hot chocolate? Chant this traditional rhyme while you stir the hot cocoa. Cocoa beans, from which chocolate is derived, were used as currency by the Mayan and Aztec civilizations more than 1400 years ago. The word "chocolate" comes from the Aztec word "xocolatl," which means "bitter water."
