The other day I was look for a particular recipe on foodnetwork.com and accidentally came across this egg cream recipe. It brought back so many memories! I used to drink this all the time as a kid! You used to be able to buy them at almost all ice cream shops and diners but I haven’t seen them nor hand one in years. They are so delicious and refreshing.
And, they are super easy to make. Most versions call for only three ingredients: milk, chocolate syrup and club soda or seltzer.
Here’s my version of Chocolate Egg Cream Soda:
Ingredients:
1/3 cup milk
1 1/2 tablespoons of Hersey’s Special Dark Chocolate Syrup
Club soda
Directions:
1. Mix the milk and syrup as if you were making chocolate milk (with will be very dark and chocolate-y)
2. Carefully fill the rest of the glass with the club soda.
3. Stir gently and serve! Just like this:
FYI: Egg creams taste best cold, so make sure the milk, chocolate syrup and soda are very cold. Sometimes I even put my glass in the frig for a few minutes, too. 🙂
If you’ve never had an egg cream, do give this a try and then let me know if you enjoyed it or not in the comments!

Thank you my dear friend!
I’ve never had egg creams. My hubby says he loved them as a kid. Being a choco-holic, I’m going to have to try this. Thanks!

I think egg creams are an East Cost thing. 🙂
