Another beloved children’s story by Roald Dahl comes to the big screen with The BFG. It recounts the colorful tales of Giant Country and one particularly friendly giant. Instead of eating children like the other giants do, The BFG survives on snozzcumbers and shows the human Sophie the fizzy drink known as frobscottle.
Frobscottle is a delicious green treat that tastes like vanilla and cream with a hint of raspberry. To the delight of many a silly reader (kid and grown-up alike) the bubbles fizz downward leading to “whizzpopping” (aka, gas). Oh my. This tasty treat is easy to make at home. Just beware the whizzpopping.
