Jim Levine, a Brooklyn tour guide who has written a few times before, and helped tells us all about the egg cream which Leo mentioned back in Episode 813. Jim says that the most believed story is that the egg cream was invented at a luncheon in Brooklyn. The original egg cream did contain eggs, but at the turn of the century when people in poor sections of the city could not afford to have egg in a drink, someone came up with the drink we now know. Authenticity requires spraying off the back of a spoon and Fox's Syrup, as per the Seltzer Sisters instructions. Fox's also has a recipe for the "original" Brooklyn Egg Cream.
