📦 **HERBEX Šuměnky fizzy drink powder – **Herbex Šuměnky (fizzy drink) 2×10 g – Orange

Type: Fizzy fruit drink powder (instant mix)
Packaging: 2×10 g (2 sachets)
Flavour: Orange – refreshing citrus profile

🧾 Characteristics and use

Herbex Fizz is a fizzy drink powder that you can easily prepare at home by dissolving the contents of a sachet in water. Once stirred, the powder dissolves to create a lightly fizzy, fruity drink with an orange flavour, ideal as a refreshing treat during the day or on outings.

🧾 Ingredients (typical for the orange variety)

• Sugar

• Citric acid – for fizz and refreshment

• Acidity regulator: sodium bicarbonate (a base used to create effervescence)

• Orange powder / dried orange concentrate (~1 %)

• Orange flavouring

• Colouring: beta-carotene

• Liquorice extract (for flavour and stabilisation)

Ingredients may vary depending on the specific edition or recipe – always check the label on the packaging.

📊 How it works

• How to prepare: Pour the contents of 1 sachet into ~0.3 l of well-chilled water and stir thoroughly – the powder will react with the water to create a fizzy, refreshing drink.

• Fizz: The combination of citric acid and sodium bicarbonate creates bubbles – the result is similar to classic fizzy drinks such as ‘šuměnka’.

🥤 Taste and characteristics

• Flavour: an intense orange citrus aroma with a slightly sweet and fizzy texture.

• Refreshment: ideal for quickly preparing a refreshing drink without sparkling mineral water.

📌 Tips

• Serve well chilled for maximum refreshment.

• You can also add ice or combine it with pieces of fresh fruit for an extra flavour experience.

• Although it comes in standard syrup or juice packaging – it isn’t fizzy like classic soda water, but mimics a fizzy drink thanks to the reaction of the powder with water.
