Fizzle

Growing-up in the early 1960s there is a childhood memory of a fascination of all things that went fizz without shaking-up a pop bottle and lifting the crown cap to release of volcano of soda flow. 

Sodaburst was an innovative instant ice cream soda mix introduced by Birds Eye in the 1950s and 1960s. Marketed as "the real ice cream soda that makes itself at home in one minute—cold," it offered a convenient way to enjoy a soda fountain-style treat at home. Each package contained a scoop of ice cream, flavored syrup, and soda fizz; consumers simply added water to create the beverage 

Available flavors included black and white (chocolate and vanilla), strawberry, pineapple, and all chocolate . Despite its novelty, Sodaburst was eventually discontinued, likely due to changing consumer preferences and market dynamics.

Seems like all that's left nowadays is Alka-Seltzer tummy and cold remedies...
