Hot chocolate, hot cocoa or drinking chocolate is a beverage, usually served hot, typically consisting of milk, chocolate or cocoa powder, and sugar. It became popular in Europe after being introduced from the New World.
Hot Chocolate was a British pop band of the 1960s, and 1970s, and 1980s formed by Errol Brown (a Briton who was born in Jamaica). They were originally named 'The Hot Chocolate Band' by Mavis Smith, who worked for the Apple Corps press office. This was quickly shortened to just Hot Chocolate.
