PREP TIME: 1 minute
COOK TIME: —
During a TV binge session of Billions, I heard one of the main characters, Chuck Rhoades, mention an egg cream drink that has no egg and no cream, and it enticed me. So, I did a quick search and found a recipe laden with sugar. Here’s my take on a low-carb egg cream . . . maybe Chuck would approve?
3 tablespoons milk (nondairy or regular)
2 teaspoons cocoa powder
½ teaspoon erythritol, or 2 drops liquid stevia
12 ounces (355 ml) sparkling water, chilled
- Place the milk, cocoa powder, and sweetener in a 16-ounce (475-ml) or larger glass. Whisk the ingredients with a fork until fully incorporated.
- Slowly pour in the sparkling water. If you fill the glass too fast, everything will bubble over, so take your time. Best enjoyed immediately.
