Slurping down ice cream mixed with fizzy pop has got to be one of life's greatest pleasures. In terms of quintessential summer pastimes it's right up there with lolloping in the sun, splashing about in a paddling pool and driving your '58 Chevy to the drive-in. Or is it just us that finds ice cream sodas incredibly '50s?

We digress. The point is, ice cream sodas rock. Unfortunately making one can be a bit messy, especially if you're out and about. Enter (accompanied by a crackly burst of Ramalamadingdong) the ingenious Fizz Cup. This take-anywhere plastic gizmo lets you make delicious ice cream sodas in seconds - no visit to the pop stand required.

Just cram the reusable cup with ice cream, bung on the lid, twist the entire shebang onto any plastic pop bottle and squeeze. The soda then whooshes up through the Fizz Cup's funnel (you can also use a straw if you like) and mixes with all that lovely ice cream. It's like a creamy volcano of sweet, bubbly yumminess!


You can then drink your lush creation through the Fizz Cup's special sippable spout or scoop it out with a spoon. Mmm...fizzy ice cream, and none of that spilling/slopping nonsense caused by the old 'floating blob' effect. Better still, because this nifty device keeps the ice cream separated from the drink, it allows you to mix only the desired amount, so you can drink your soda on its own or just wolf down the ice cream and keep the rest fresh for later.
