Raisins sink in water because they are denser. However, the carbon dioxide molecules found in soda float to the top because they want to escape from the liquid. These CO2 molecules (seen as bubles) attatch to the raisins pulling them up to the surface as well. When the CO2 bubles reach the surface, they pop and the raisins begin to sink again.

It will raise then sink again and continuously do it
Why does the soaked raisin go up and down in the carbonated water?
CO2 bubbles cling to the raisin, making it buoyant until it reaches the surface of the carbonated water, whereupon all the CO2 bubbles are shaken off the raisin, making it sink again. The cycle will repeat as long as there remains carbonation in the water.
What will happen if you put 7up with with raisins?
The raisins will raise to the surface of the 7-up because of the bubbles in the drink. When it reaches the surface, the bubble will pop and the raisin will sink. Eventually, all the bubbles from the drink cause the raisin to repeat the cycle and it is considered "dancing raisins".
What happens when you drop a rasin in a glass of fresh champagne?
Sink to the bottom and cause the bubbles to rise. Nothing magical, sometimes you will have it sink then rise again due to a bubble getting trapped in the wrinkles of the raisin. It will make the champagne go flat faster.
