      Like the other person said, in the states, sherbet is an ice cream that has juice in it. It’s fruit flavored, but not as fruity, and more artificial tasting (imo at least) than sorbet.

        I looked that up and it seems similar, but sherbet is fizzy. From what I can find I don’t think pixie sticks are
