Sherbet in the United Kingdom is a kind of fizzy powder made from bicarbonate of soda, tartaric acid, sugar etc and usually cream soda or fruit flavoured. The acid-carbonate reaction occurs upon presence of moisture (juice/saliva). It used to be stirred into various beverages to make effervescing drinks, in a similar way to making lemonade from lemonade powders. Today, people usually buy carbonated drinks rather than making them at home.
Sherbet is now used to mean this powder sold as a sweet. In the United States, it would be somewhat comparable to the powder in Pixy Stix or Lik-M-Aid/Fun Dip, though having the fizzy quality of Pop Rocks effervescing candy.

Milky the marvellous milking cow from 1978. I didn't know these existed until I discovered this clip. It drinks water and gives milk, useful.

Back in the 50's and 60's this is what the management would run at the Drive-In between films, to advertise food and soft drinks at the snack bar, and to let you know how much time you had to get back to your car(beware the 'famous Italian recipe pizza!). Campy and very nostalgic!
