xocotlatl ショコトラトル Explanation: From Nahuatl (Aztec language): xocotl (fruit) + atl (water). Etymologically it is very close to Chocolate, which has Nahuatl origins as well [xocolatl: xocolli (bitter) + atl (water)]. "Fernando Cortès reached the east coast of Mexico in 1519. As an honored guest of Montezuma (Aztec emperor and inveterate chocolate fanatic!) he was offered xocotlatl -- a small portion of aromatic chocolate drink mixed with vanilla, pepper and other herbs." __ http://www.trendychocolate.com/nl/choco_origin_gui.asp More references: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chocolate#Etymology http://www.chocolatenecessities.com/history_of_chocolate.htm...
