In her effort to encourage me not to touch coke anymore, our dearest Queen of the House

To Make Your Own Fizzy Drink,

you need: ...

A glass of waterLemon juice
Castor sugar
Baking soda(also known as Bicarbonate of Soda or Sodium Bicarbonate)

And how do you do it?

Squeeze some lemon juice into the glass of water and stir in a teaspoon of castor sugar.
Add a teaspoon of baking soda.
Enjoy!!!!(You can substitute/add other acidic fruit juices as well)

The baking soda and lemon juice react to make carbon dioxide in the water (the bubbles that you see in fizzy drinks).


And by the way, here's an interesting experiment.

What happens when you add a handful of raisins to a glass of fizzy drink?

Put 5 or 6 raisins in a glass of fizzy drink and watch what happens. (A lighter coloured fizzy drink works better so you can see the raisins).First the raisins sink because they are more dense or heavier than the drink. Then bubbles of compressed carbon dioxide form under the raisins. The bubbles make the raisins float, so they rise and when the bubbles reach the surface they burst. That means the raisins are heavier than the drink again so they sink. .... Then they rise to the top..... And sink again..... And then rise again..... And sink again.

Great entertainment when you're bored in the kitchen!!!!
