Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 3

5 oz chocolate syrup (like hershey's chocolate syrup or ice cream fudge sauce)
3 to 4 oz milk (or half-and-half)
3 to 4 oz seltzer water

Steps:

  • 1. Squeeze or pour about 2 inches worth of chocolate syrup into a tall 20-ounce glass (such as a Pilsener glass).
  • 2. Pour in the milk; DO NOT STIR.
  • 3. Hold an inverted soup spoon over the glass. Slowly pour seltzer onto the back of the spoon, letting it cascade into the glass, until the glass is about 3/4 full. Remove the spoon, then add enough seltzer to fill the glass, creating a foamy layer on top.
  • 4. Drizzle a few thin lines of chocolate syrup on top of the foamy layer. Insert a straw; serve immediately.
