I'd never tried an egg cream, since I'd assumed from the name that I wouldn't like it. Wrong! My daughter and I were both pleasantly surprised that we enjoyed this very much. We both love chocolate, and although neither of us is a big seltzer fan, in this drink it works. I wasn't able to find Fox’s U-Bet chocolate syrup that the author says is used in New York egg creams, nor was I able to find Recchiuti’s Extra-Bitter Chocolate Sauce, which is suggested for the San Francisco version. The only thing I found in my local grocery store that was the closest thing to chocolate sauce was in the ice cream toppings section, and it was Smucker's Special Recipe Dark Chocolate topping. I think we found a new drink to enjoy in the warmer months.
