Indulge in the timeless charm of an Egg Cream, a non-alcoholic soda fountain classic that's surprisingly egg-free! With just three simple ingredients—creamy whole milk, fizzy seltzer water, and rich chocolate syrup—this refreshing beverage comes together in under 5 minutes for the perfect balance of sweet and bubbly. The delightful frothy top is created by skillfully blending the cold milk and chocolate syrup with effervescent seltzer, delivering a satisfying texture and nostalgic flavor. Ideal for a quick treat or a retro-inspired dessert accompaniment, this chilled Egg Cream is best served immediately for maximum froth and fizz. Whether you’re enjoying it with a straw or sipping straight from the glass, this old-school favorite is a unique, crowd-pleasing drink that never goes out of style.
Chill the milk, seltzer water, and serving glass in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes prior to preparation to ensure the beverage is cold and refreshing.
Pour 1 cup of cold whole milk into the chilled serving glass.
Add 3 tablespoons of chocolate syrup to the milk. Stir thoroughly with a spoon until the chocolate syrup is fully blended and no streaks remain.
Slowly pour 3/4 cup of cold seltzer water into the glass while stirring gently to create a frothy top. Be careful not to over-stir as the foam may dissipate.
Serve immediately while the beverage is bubbly and frothy. Enjoy with a straw for the full experience!
