I dunno what recipe you use, but the Official Noo Yawk Jewish Egg Cream has no
eggs and no cream in it. Chocolate syrup, whole milk, and seltzer (NOT "club
soda" thankyouverymuch!). That's it.

It's theorized that the name is a corruption of "echt" cream, "echt" being the
Yiddish word for "right" or "correct" - in other words, it's the "right way" to
drink cream. :-)
