German term or phrase: Kakao-Rausch
Der Kakao-Rausch: Kolumbien und Drogen. Mit dem Projekt haben wir uns vor ein paar Jahren in Kolumbien engagiert. Legaler Kakaoanbau statt illegaler Kokainplantagen, darum ging es. Doch das Projekt ist nach einigen Monaten ziemlich gescheitert.

Da es bei der Beschreibung dieser Schokolade um ein Projekt geht, welches legalen Kakaoanbau statt illegaler Kokainplantagen zur Folge hatte, ist das Motto "Kakao-Rausch" eine Anspielung auf einen Drogen- oder Kokainrausch.

Könnte man dieses Wort hier z.B. mit "Cocoa Trip" oder "Cocoa Frenzy" übersetzen?

Vielen Dank im Voraus für Euer Feedback!
