Were you, like me, a kid who freaking loved Yoo-Hoo?

If not, then please extract yourself from this website, because Yoo-Hoo RULES!

But if, just if, you feel that now you're a little more grown up and could use a less chemically contrived beverage, I submit for your approval...chocolate water.

Chocolate water is not chocolate milk. It is not a mocha. It is not a frozen hot chocolate.

It's chocolate water.

It's available at a magical place called Dandelion Chocolate in San Francisco, and it tastes...people!...like a fancy, grown-up Yoo-Hoo. Like, if Yoo-Hoo were made with fine quality dark chocolate.

This is a beverage that is bound to offer Yoo-Hoo enthusiasts whose tastes may have...er, grown up...a nice and slightly nostalgic treat.

It's also true that they have plenty of other items on the menu--and, of course, complimentary MARSHMALLOWS.

But for now, I'm hooked on this delicious and refreshing water.

Chocolate Water.
