Ingredients
- 0.5 cups Whole milk

Step 1
Chill a tall glass in the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes to ensure your drink stays cold.
Step 2
Pour the whole milk into the chilled glass, filling it about halfway.
Step 3
Slowly add the seltzer water to the milk, pouring gently down the side of the glass to maintain a fizzy texture. The liquid should bubble and froth as you pour.

Drizzle the chocolate syrup over the milk and seltzer mixture.
Step 5
Use a long spoon to stir the drink vigorously, combining the ingredients until you achieve a foamy, creamy top with a rich chocolate flavor throughout.
