You can try with request library, Related Question: how to make an http post request in node js you can refer this.

//including Event Source
var EventSource = require('eventsource');

var request     = require('request');  /*****ADDED******/   

var es  = new EventSource('http://api.xyz.com:8100/update/');

//Listening URL Event Sourse 
es.addEventListener('message', function (e) { 

    //Extract Json
    var extractData =  JSON.parse(e.data); 

    if(extractData.type == 'CALL' )
    {  
       console.log(extractData);

        //you can call a function 
        postDataToServer(extractData); 

    }
});

//Post Details to other server
function postDataToServer(SendingDetails)
{ 
    var ServerURL = 'OTHER_SERVAL_URL';

    request({
        url    : ServerURL,
        method : "POST",
        json   : true,
        body   : SendingDetails
    }, function (error, response, body){
        console.log(body);       
    });
}
