How To Make An Egg Cream

Ingredients

For the chocolate syrup: 

  • 6 ounces (200 g) good-quality bittersweet or milk chocolate, coarsely chopped
  • ⅔ cup (160 ml) boiling water
  • ⅔ cup (160 ml) 1:1 simple syrup

For the egg cream:

  • 1½ ounces (45 ml) chocolate syrup
  • 3 ounces (90 ml) milk of your choice (dairy or nondairy)
  • 6 ounces (175 ml) chilled seltzer

Directions

  1. To make the chocolate syrup, in a large bowl, whisk together the chocolate, boiling water, and simple syrup until smooth and pourable. Transfer to an airtight glass jar or bottle and seal. Store in the refrigerator until ready to use.
  2. To make an egg cream, pour the chocolate syrup into a tall glass, add the milk, then top with the seltzer. Stir to your desired level of smoothness.
