Soma Yuzu Dark Chocolate Drinking Chocolate
Yuzu is a bumpy, sunshine yellow citrus known for its vibrant personality. This Yuzu comes from the Kochi prefecture in Japan from an area called the Yuzu Road. Once a logging railroad, the bare mountainous sides were rejuvenated in the 1960s by planting Yuzu orchards.
Yuzu favours span the lemon, mandarin-orange spectrum, with hints of grapefruit and fragrant honeysuckle blossoms. Yuzu is infused into Dream Machine, a dark chocolate Soma makes with cacao beans from their favourite farms and growing regions. Just add heat to make a rich, melty hot chocolate that will wake your sniffer and taste buds up fully.
It's easy to make. For 2 servings...
Bring 1/2 cup of water to a boil in small saucepan. Add 6 tablespoons of dry mix. Reduce heat to a simmer and whisk until thick and smooth. This is your liquid chocolate.
Serve 1/4 cup of liquid chocolate in a shot glass for an intense shot.
For a traditional mug, add 3/4 cup of warm milk or hot water to 1/4 cup of liquid chocolate.
Ingredients: cocoa nibs, organic cane sugar, natural vanilla, yuzu

Made in Toronto, Canada!
Soma’s first space was in a tiny corner of a former whisky distillery. They started off roasting and winnowing cacao beans, refining and conching their own chocolate, spinning gelato, baking cookies, making hot chocolates, and producing a line of truffles. (whew!) A small retail portion would fold out during the day, and like a transformer, fold back in at night. It was here that they started meeting a community of very interesting folks with a healthy appetite for great chocolate.
What does SOMA mean?
Soma in Sanskrit means “food of the Gods” By coincidence, Theobroma Cacao which is the Latin name for the cacao tree also means “ food of the Gods”
In Aldous Huxley’s novel, “Brave New World” Soma was the substance that kept everyone in a constant state of bliss. Soma is also referenced in the Rig Veda as being the mysterious plant used to achieve nirvana. To date there is much speculation but no clear consensus on the exact identity of the plant.
