max brenner is well known for their chocolates and newborn waiters (haha..chocolate by the BALD man that is) but who wouldve thought that a twisted and fun chocolate drink resides at their menu. i didnt think so. well yeah...im amazed by their *drumdroll* SUCKAO.
from their own menu, max brenner descbribes Suckao as the espresso of the chocolate drinks. it is a small, dense, concentrated shot of rich chocolate. the term "Suckao" is made up of two words that describe the utensil and the unique drink it contains:
Suck - to draw the dense liquid through the metal tube.
Kakao - the spanish word for cocoa beans from which the rich chocolate drink is made and which determines its quality.
Thus the name Suckao.
But to live up to this exciting drink, we should all know the key elements:
- suckao glass / mug - a special glass where you mix the chocolate and milk. it has 2 holes which allows you to see if the candle is still lit. btw, the candle serves as your chocolate drink heater. but you can always lift the glass and move it away from the candle if the temperature is already ok. you can put it back again if it cools down.
- the stirrer / straw - is what makes this drink extra special! two in one! you stir and you sip through this! need i say more? haha!
visit max brenner for a real life feel of the suckao! :)
