All the elements of group 1 are highly reactive to water. Some elements also turn explosive when in contact with water ,such as Potassium but for sparkling sodium is used. When group 1 elements react with water they give off hydrogen gas , the hydrogen gas burns with a coloured flame. In case of sodium, it burns with an orange flame.

Sodium + Water => Hydrogen + Sodium hydroxide

The ability to react vigorously increases as we go down in group 1.

Are fizzy drinks fizzy in space?

Fizzy drinks are not fizzy in space as there is no oxygen to fizz the bubbles. The fizz in fizzy drinks is carbon dioxide coming out. In a vacuum the liquid would "boil" because of the water vapour coming out, and would probably freeze because of all the heat removed with it. Oxygen plays no role in this at all.
