fizzing

Making tiny bubbles

Fizzing describes something producing small bubbles and a hissing sound, like carbonated drinks or effervescent tablets dissolving in water: The soda was still fizzing when she handed it to me.

Figuratively, fizzing can mean buzzing with energy or excitement: The crowd was fizzing with anticipation.

In British slang, fizzing sometimes means furious: He was absolutely fizzing.
