All About Chocolate > Cocoa in the French West Indies

At the first communion meal, it is traditional to serve hot chocolate accompanied by bread and butter. But hot chocolate is also served for breakfast simply to clear foggy heads after an over-indulgent evening.

We can't mention the islands without thinking of punch. Cocoa plays a role here too, for the West Indians make a cocoa punch to accompany dessert ice creams or just a good coffee.
