 egg cream - definition of egg cream in Encyclopedia
An egg cream is a classic New York City beverage consisting of chocolate syrup, milk and seltzer (soda water), probably dating from the late 19th century, and is especially associated with Brooklyn.
The egg cream is almost exclusively a fountain drink; although there have been several attempts to bottle it none have been wholly successful, as its fresh taste and characterisic head requires mixing of the ingredients just before drinking.
Though almost universally made with chocolate syrup, they were sometimes requested with other flavors, especially vanilla or strawberry.

 Low Carb Luxury: History of the New York Egg Cream
Eggs and cream were both very popular ingredients in better sodas at the time, but added to the cost of the drink.
It is possible that Louis Auster's Egg Cream contained only chocolate syrup, soda water, and maybe milk -- But the chocolate syrup might have been prepared with both eggs and cream (thus the name).
Initially, each of the different soda fountains produced widely different versions of the Egg Cream, but eventually a formula consisting of seltzer water (3/4 of a glass), chocolate syrup (usually Fox's U-Bet, 1-2 oz.), and either cream or milk (not too much) was settled upon.

 Why Do They Call it an Egg Cream?
The syrup which was used was made with eggs, and cream was used to give it a richer taste.

According to NYCA, the original egg cream was produced in Manhattan.

 JS Online: Give eggs a good beating, cream a proper whipping
Freshly whipped cream is so much better than the frozen whipped stuff, and beaten egg whites have many uses: to top pies as fluffy meringue, to lighten cake batters (and omelets) and to bake on their own as meringue cookies or pastry shells.
Heavy whipping cream has a higher milk fat percentage and so whips faster and firmer than other creams.
Some dessert recipes call for beaten egg whites to be folded into a mixture and then chilled - no baking required.

 For Chocolate Lovers Only by Stephanie Zonis: Mom and Dad's Egg Cream - Recipe on StarChefs

 FORWARD : Arts & Letters
It was always called an egg cream, though in time people began to wonder, as you have 40 years later, why a drink without an egg and cream would be called an egg cream.
In much later years, this chocolate nectar of the gods was lost to civilization and a bogus substitute of regular chocolate syrup (sans eggs and cream in the formula), plus milk plus seltzer, was a pathetic attempt to imitate the inimitable.
Auster's candy store, which existed in those days on Second Avenue and the corner of 8th Street (or maybe it was 7th), was one of three havens of the 'original egg cream' — no added milk whatsoever, only an inch-and-a-half of chocolate syrup plus seltzer.

But this year's traditional egg cream winner disagrees with the historian's recipe, saying chocolate should be the last ingredient poured in.
There were almost as many egg cream judges as there were egg cream entries - and who can blame them?
