Dancing Raisins

A fizzy drink contains bubbles of CO2(carbon dioxide gas). When you place raisins into a fizzy drink the raisins sink to the bottom to begin with, as they are heavier. The raisins then collect and drink the bubbles of CO2 which now make the raisins lighter so they rise to the top of the drink.

When they reach the surface the gas bubbles burst and the raisins sink.
