I’m writing this from an island in the middle of a huge lake that has two volcanoes on it and more chocolate than Willy Wonka’s factory. Grateful Dead is blasting from the speakers as I sip on a chocolate smoothie and work. This smoothie from the Cocao Bar at El Pital in Ometempe Nicaragua is what dreams are made of. I created a similar version that I’d like to share with you so you can channel some of these magical vibes in your home.
