As I understand it, a cocoa bean is a roasted seed from the cacao tree. How come other seeds from other trees haven’t been turned into other drinks?

Question

Are there any comparable seeds that can be turned into drinks or products like cacao seeds?

I should’ve elaborated, I meant a hot drink made from ground plantstuff that isn’t tea leaves. I’m aware nut milk of various kinds already exists but nut milk is made from the nuts being soaked in water for a long time, not being ground, then put in hot water.

Answer 1

Coffee is the obvious other answer. It’s also made from fermentingand roasting the seeds of the coffee plant.

As for why this hasnt been done with other seeds, perhaps people in the past did try it with other seeds but they just couldnt create anyrhing worth drinking.
