Monsoon Chocolate

Tucson


Delightful single-origin chocolatier in southern Tucson, where, depending on the weather, you can sample a tongue-tingling Mexican hot chocolate or, more likely, a Frocho (chocloate granita with coconut cream), along with decadent mezcal chocolates, choco tacos and even s'mores. Simple cafe fare and excellent coffee is also served. Vegan and gluten-free options too.
