Seawright Springs
Seawright Springs is located in Augusta County, Virginia on 145 acres of protected woodlands, surrounded by National Forest. The spring surfaces in a clear, circular pool from a depth of 1000ft. Seawright Springs is a very special spring that was flowing when America was only a dream. Early explorers of Virginia learned from the Native Americans about a spring of water, which they called “good health water”. Seawright Springs will be available at fine grocers and restaurants in an upscale plastiuc bottle in January of 2006.

Like water for Chocolate
In Mexico hot chocolate is made with water, not milk. Water is brought to a boil and chocolate is added to the hot water.

Water is usually not the beverage that comes to mind when we talk about chocolate but “can water be the right beverage for your Valentine’s Day chocolate?”
