Starbucks rolls out new "Chantico" chocolate drink - Jan. 10, 2005 (278 words)
Chantico may be a fancy name for what essentially is a cocoa beverage, but Starbucks (Research) wants its patrons to think of it as something different, more like a "drinkable dessert."
According to the company, Chantico is steamed with cocoa butter and whole milk, giving it a thick and creamy texture.
A six-ounce cup of Chantico contains 390 calories, 20g of fat and 50g of carbs.
chocophile.com: Living The Chocolate Life™ (964 words)
I tried Chantico on a number of occasions over the past couple of weeks, in part because the first cup I got was a disappointment on several levels: it was not hot enough and I could taste undissolved sugar crystals in the mix.
Chantico is shipped in powder form to stores where it is mixed with milk to form a thick syrup.
I gave the Chantico a Good rather than a Very Good rating because of the (to me) floury texture and the fact that it really is very sweet: sweet on the nose and with sweetness as the predominant aftertaste.
