Sherbet
Sherbet (Soda powder; Etymology: Turkish & Persian; Turkish şerbet, from  Persian & Urdu/Hindi sharbat, from Arabic sharba drink) (British and American English) or Sherbert (Australian English and New Zealand English, also a variant used in American English) historically was a cool effervescent or iced fruit soft drink. The meaning, spelling and pronunciation have fractured between three English-speaking countries. It is usually spelled either sherbet or sherbert. In the US, the most common meaning of sherbet is a frozen dessert sorbet or a special kind of ice cream: see sherbet (U.S.).
