Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons (30 ml) chocolate syrup (Fox’s U-Bet recommended)
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) cold whole milk
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) chilled seltzer water
- Ice cubes (optional)
- Whipped cream (optional)
Instructions
- Chill your tall glass in the fridge or freezer for 5-10 minutes.
- Add 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of chocolate syrup into the cold glass.
- Slowly pour 1/2 cup (120 ml) of cold whole milk over the syrup and stir gently to blend without overmixing.
- Pour 1/2 cup (120 ml) of chilled seltzer water slowly and steadily from the bottle into the glass to create a foamy head.
- Do not stir after adding the seltzer. Serve immediately with a straw or spoon.
Notes
Use cold ingredients to maintain fizz and foam. Pour seltzer last and do not stir after adding it to keep the signature foam. Use a narrow glass for better foam stability. Adjust syrup quantity to taste. For a colder drink, add ice cubes but expect foam to dissipate faster.
