Experience the nostalgic charm of a New York Vanilla Egg Cream, a timeless soda fountain classic that's perfect for any occasion. With just three simple ingredients—chilled whole milk, velvety vanilla syrup, and effervescent seltzer water—this refreshing drink is a delightful blend of creamy richness and fizzy lightness, ready in just 5 minutes. Despite its name, this iconic beverage contains neither eggs nor cream, focusing instead on its signature frothy top and irresistible vanilla flavor. Perfect as a mid-afternoon pick-me-up or a unique dessert alternative, serve this bubbly treat in a tall, chilled glass with a straw for maximum enjoyment.
Chill a tall 12-ounce glass in the refrigerator to ensure your egg cream stays cold.
Pour 1 cup of chilled whole milk into the glass.
Add 2 tablespoons of vanilla syrup to the milk and stir vigorously with a long spoon until fully combined.
Slowly pour 1 cup of chilled seltzer water into the glass to create a foamy top. Pouring against the side of the glass will help control the foam.
Stir gently with a spoon to mix the seltzer water with the milk and syrup without deflating the foam.
Serve immediately with a straw to enjoy the bubbly, creamy vanilla flavor.
