Hot chocolate with brioche-style sweets has been very common in the Catalan Countries since the late 1600s. Nowadays, it's still popular to have it with family or friends over breakfast or berenar (mid-afternoon snack).

I have friends from the USA and from England, and they were surprised when they had hot chocolate here because it's thick. I was also surprised in the USA and England, because what they call "hot chocolate" is what I would call a "chocolate milkshake" (Cacaolat, Cola-cao, etc).

For this reason, I am curious. In your countries, is hot chocolate a completely liquid drink, or is it a thick drink you can both drink directly or with a spoon? Let me know in the tags or comments!
