Brooklyn Seltzer Boys Bring Back A Great Drink – Tradition Revival
Image by Chic Bee
I remember when seltzer was delivered to our door in wooden spacer crates. Now, I buy it in cardboard cases of cans at the supermarket. I drink a few a day out of the can. And, I use it to make my coffee egg cream version of the iconic Brooklyn Egg Cream that I drank as a kid..
Important Note: Seltzer is not club soda!! Club soda has added ingredients. Seltzer water is just pure water and pressurized carbon dioxide

More Notes:
The Key 🔑To Making A Great Coffee Egg Cream Is A Chilled Glass❣️
Heart Healthy Version
A chilled glass or Ice cubes,
Decaffeinated Coffee,
Refrigerated Muscle Milk protein drink,
Refrigerated Seltzer,
and,
Heavy whipping cream (not whipped.).
This is before stirring.
I did not have time to whip the cream since I was very thirsty (;-)
Note:
There is no egg at all in an ‘egg cream’… In the original version there was no cream either. The name was totally misleading. No one knows how it got the name.
There was only chocolate syrup, seltzer water, and milk…
For my heart healthy version, I have modified it by using decaffeinated coffee, Muscle Milk as my sweetener instead of chocolate syrup, seltzer, and heavy cream instead of milk.
