Hot Cocao is a chocolate beverage typically made from cocoa powder, sugar and milk or water. Cocao powder is chocolate with the cocoa butter removed, resulting in a thin consistency usually served in a large mug. Hot chocolate or drinking chocolate is richer and more velvety because it is made by melting real chocolate shavings or bars back into milk, retaining the natural cocoa butter. Sipping chocolate is the most intense and indulgent of the three; it uses a very high chocolate-to-liquid ratio — often incorporating heavy cream — to create a thick, liquid truffle consistency that is served in small espresso-sized portions meant for savoring slowly. - AsNotedIn
