Koko Samoa — Samoan Hot Chocolate Connection

Origin
Samoan-Hawaiian

Description
Koko Samoa (Samoan cocoa) is present in Hawaiʻi through the large Samoan diaspora community. Pure, semi-refined cocoa balls are grated, dissolved in hot water or milk, and sweetened. It is richer, more intense, and less processed than commercial hot chocolate. The Samoan community in Hawaiʻi maintains this tradition — connecting the Samoan chapter of the trail to the Hawaiian chapter through diaspora food.
