I remember a relative always getting egg cream when visiting New York City. It's a simple tasty beverage consisting of 3 ingredients: whole milk, chocolate syrup and seltzer water. There is no egg or cream in the recipe despite the name ! Read more ! The drink stayed fizzy a few minutes and had a mellow satisfying flavor. Fox's and U-bet were the chocolate brands of choice in making egg cream Modern versions of egg cream have wonderful flavors such as black cherry, mango, vanilla etc. although chocolate is the original choice.

How to make it

There are many proportions of the above ingredients in making the egg cream which differ slightly-
I place the milk and syrup in a screw top or shaker jar
Then I add the seltzer water
Shake vigorously
Pour into serving glass
Drink immediately as selzer water fizzles out in a few minutes

I Have also tried using Black Cherry flavored seltzer and it has a similar flavor. using regular chocolate gives it a lighter cherry kick, but very good.
I also do not shake, but rather pour the seltzer slowly into the chocolate milk stirring the entire time. the fizz lasts longer and there is less potential for a mess.
