Title: Cream Nogg (Make It Cackle) Keywords: Ice Cream, Oldies Add 1 large raw egg to any milk shake or malt recipe.
Title: Egg Cream (Phosphates) Keywords: Oldies, Soda Fountain 2 tbls Chocolate Syrup (preferably a thine one. Fox's U-bet brand is preferred) 1/3 cup Milk 2/3 cup Ice-Cold Charged Seltzer Water Put the chocolate syrup in the bottom of a large soda fountain glass. Add the milk and stir, blending (don't worry if a few streaks of unblended chocolate are at bottom of the glass--that's traditional.) Add the seltzer and stir vigorously. Of course the best way to add seltzer is to squirt it in. But it's okay if you don't have a squirter, so long as the seltzer is very bubbly. A foamy head will rise to the top. Drink immediately. For more tingle and a higher head, use 1/4 cup milk and 3/4 cup of seltzer. For a richer egg cream, use half milk and half seltzer.
Title: Sodas Of All Kinds Keywords: Ice Cream, Oldies, Sodas Traditionally, an ice cream soda is flavoring, charged water, ice cream and possibly a nice dab of whipped cream. The technique is 1-2-3: put 2 Tbls of syrup or flavoring in the bottom of the largest glass you have. Add the seltzer water, stirring as you pour , to within 2 inches of the lip of the glass. Add 1 large scoop of very hard ice cream trying to straddle the rim of the glass and still submerge enough of the ice cream to begin reacting with the bubbles to creat a foamy head. If the ice cream is too deep in the flavored seltzer, the soda will over flow. If it doesn't touch the seltzer at all, you don't have a soda. With a little practice, you will reach a perfect balance. Top the soda with a healthy squirt of whipped cream. The possible combinations are unlimited -- black and white--(chocolate syrup vanilla ice cream), Canary Islan specials -- (vanilla syrup and chocolate syrup), double chocolates, mochas, etc. Here are a few standard fountain recipes. Black And White Chocolate syrup, seltzer, vanilla ice cream. Bodacious Black And White.

Catawba Flip An antique-tasting soda that dates back to the 1860's, made without whipped cream. The traditional flavoring is grape syrup, butr Welch's Concord Grape juice is powerful enough to do the job just fine. 1 scoop Vanilla Ice Cream 1 large Egg 2 oz Grape Juice Shaved Ice Seltzer Put all the ingredients in a blender, except the seltzer, and blend until smooth. Pour into the glass and fill with seltzer water.
