A classic scenario involving soda pops, or other carbonated drinks. Someone purposely or accidentally shakes the yet unopened can (or bottle), resulting in the unlucky person opening the can getting a shower of soda sprayed into their face.
Truth in Television: carbonated drinks are made by forcing carbon dioxide gas into a beverage under pressure. In an unopened bottle, there is an equilibrium between the carbon dioxide that has been dissolved into the liquid and the gas floating at the very top of the bottle. Opening the bottle results in a bit of fizzing as the pressure that has been keeping the gas dissolved is released. If the bottle is shaken however, some of the carbon dioxide that has been floating at the top of the bottle gets suspended in the liquid. This extra carbonation stays in larger (though not necessarily visible) bubbles than the already-dissolved carbonation. As soon as someone opens the bottle at this point, the large bubbles will rise very quickly to the liquid's surface, resulting in the soda shower.
However, as with many things fiction tends to exaggerate the power of the exploding suds. In extreme cases, characters may even weaponize a shaken soda can for propulsion or attacking.
Compare Unscrewed Salt Shaker, another meal-related prank, and Soda-Candy 'Splosion, a similarly eruptive reaction involving soft drinks.

In Night Watch Discworld, Vimes mentions the "ginger-beer trick" as a way of coercing prisoners to talk—you shake up the bottle of ginger-beer and stick it up their nose. He doesn't have to actually do it; the threat alone, while holding a bottle of ginger-beer, is enough to get someone to rat.

In Quake's episode of Marvel Rising Ultimate Comics, she uses her quake powers to discreetly shake Dugan's soda as he eats lunch, and it goes off in his face offscreen. At the end of the episode, she also does this prank to Iron Man. He complains that his armor will be sticky for weeks.

Sergeant Micklin of the Black Sheep Squadron has a Running Gag about getting canned beer delivered to Rabaul during wartime. Micklin would always state, "I don't want my beer all shook up." Of course, the beer has been handled indelicately in transit, so Micklin gets spray and foam when his can is opened. This usually led to a frightened underling getting chased by one angry mechanic.

The Cosby Show: in one episode, Cliff gets a couple of cans of soda for himself and Claire, and shakes up the one he intended to give to Claire. But when he gets to the table, he realizes that he mixed them up, takes them back to the refrigerator and exchanges them for two unshaken cans. Then Denise goes to the fridge and grabs a can. Guess which one she picks.

The TaleSpin episode "From Here To Machinery" has the robot pilot of Shere Khan's private plane fly directly into an air pirate ambush. The robot refuses to alter course and can electrify itself to prevent anyone else from displacing it. Baloo smartly weaponizes a bottle of soda pop by shaking it vigorously, then aiming the spray at the robot. All that sticky fluid shorts out the robot's electrics, leaving it inert. Baloo then takes control and outflies the pirates to safety.

Tom and Jerry:
In Salt Water Tabby, Jerry gets stuck in a soda bottle, so Tom shakes it and the resulting blast sends him flying.
In The Little Orphan, Nibbles pops open a champagne bottle, and the carbonated blast propels it toward Tom and sends him flying into the china cabinet.
In Mouse in Manhattan, Jerry accidentally gets stuck in a bottle of champagne, and the resulting pressure sending him flying into a dark alley.
In High Steaks, Jerry shakes up a bottle of soda to hit Tom with the deluge, but he ducks and it instead ruins his master's steaks. Believing Tom's at fault, the master shakes up another bottle and shoves it down his throat, the resulting explosion leaving his body bottle-shaped.

Whose Line Is It Anyway?: During the game "Helping Hands", if there is anything carbonated on the table while Colin acts like Ryan's arms, expect Colin to pick it up and wave it around (often forcing Ryan to energetically or angrily holler at the other player). Colin then tends to open the item in the other player's or Ryan's face while being mostly safe from the results since Ryan is taller than him.

The Beano: One Bash Street Kids strip had the kids play a game where each one has to open a can of cola next to their face, one can having been previously shaken. Danny gets the shaken can, but as he opens it, their teacher accidentally gets in the way of the spray.
Another instance in the Beano annual 2015, where Sidney is trying to demonstrate how diet cola will explode like a rocket when exposed to a soft mint, his sister, Toots is holding the bottle and shakes it, so when Sidney opens the bottle, it goes all up in his face.

In Paranoia, grenades can be hard to come by for the low-ranking Player Characters and enemy Mooks. There is a suitable replacement, however, Bouncy Bubble Beverage. The soda is so heavily carbonated that by shaking and throwing a can or bottle of it, the explosion is comparable to a grenade, complete with shrapnel. And, because B3 isn't considered a weapon, it's widely available to everyone.

After dodging several punches that would have sent the knife into the back of his throat, Joey melodramatically states that he'd made a promise to a friend... to get him a can of soda, and fires it at the gamer's eyes now that it's been nicely shaken up by his dodging.

Garfield:
It happens to Garfield, and the exploding bottle startles Jon.
Garfield sprays Odie with a shaken soda can.
Garfield pulled the prank on Jon during his breakfast, along with unscrewing the lid on the salt shaker and plugging Jon's croissant into an electrical outlet.
In one comic, Garfield tried to prank Jon by giving him a shaken soda can, but a Genre Savvy Jon aimed the can at Garfield when opening it, resulting in Garfield getting sprayed.
Garfield tries the same prank, and again it seems Jon is going to turn the tables on Garfield. But when Jon opens the can, the pressure inside sends him flying backward rather than the soda getting sprayed all over Garfield.

Played with on Better Call Saul, as Howard Hamlin demonstrates to an HHM intern how to open a shaken can of soda so as to avoid the usual explosive results (place it on a flat surface and rotate it to get the bubbles to cling to the sides of the can). He says he learned the trick from Chuck, who did it out of habit every time he opened a soda can. Given who his brother is, it's not hard to imagine why he'd have such a habit.

Get Amped: one of the accessories is a big soda can the user carries on their back. The gimmick of this accessory is that, as the user runs, the soda can will build up fizz; 3 of its special attacks will become stronger the more fizz it has built up: either firing a powerful burst of soda out of the can, or using the burst of soda as a propeller to rocket towards the ground.

The Professionals. In "Hijack", Lewis Collins appears to have been the victim of an on-set practical joke when he opens a can of soda and it sprays himself and the hotel waiter. As often with this series the scene is left in instead of being consigned to a blooper reel.

The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron, Boy Genius: In "Maximum Hugh", Cindy finds out that Hugh's sudden athleticism at the parent/child picnic games is because of an experimental headband that Jimmy put on him, so she sabotages them by giving Hugh a "congratulatory" can of Purple Flurp that she shook up so the fizz can short out the headband.

Silent Movie exaggerates this: The climax involves Mel Funn and his pals using shaken-up Coke cans as grenades to fight off the evil Mr. Engulf and his minions. Mel even opens a can with his teeth at one point, and Engulf's right-hand-man leaps onto a Coke can to protect his boss from the explosion.

Superman: The Movie. When Lois Lane first meets Clark Kent, she grabs a bottle of carbonated liquid that he's trying to open, bangs it against a table several times, and hands it back to him. When he opens it, it fizzes up and spills on him. The fact that she did it deliberately is made clear by the dialogue.

In one episode of Muppet Babies (1984), Scooter and Animal visit a futuristic park where they see an astronaut leaving behind his can of diet soda. When he blasts off without it, Animal takes himself and Scooter to the moon to give the can back. The astronaut gratefully takes the can, but as he's in the process of opening it, Scooter tries to tell him that Animal bounced across the moon's terrain with it:

An accidental version occurs in the short, "Cross-Country Kitty" from the Tiny Toon Adventures episode, "Furrball Follies". Mary Melody takes Furrball to Miami to get his mind off of eating Sweetie. When Mary gets Furrball a can of soda, Furrball races back to ACME Acres to pursue Sweetie. Due to being jittery from racing back to Miami before Mary notices he's gone, Furrball ends up shaking the can and it sprays in his face when he opens it.

Of course, Ed ends up going overboard and sends the trio flying about twenty feet in the air right before they crash back down.

The practical joker of the gang's current shtick is shaking up bottles of soda water and spraying people with the contents.

In Codename: Kids Next Door episode "Operation: P.O.P", this is how Numbuh 2 defeats Fizz. After Fizz dons a root beer powered battlesuit and incapacitates all the team except Numbuh 2, Numbuh 2 starts messing with the lever to the Conveyor Belt o' Doom that Fizz is on, causing him to be shook back and forth. This causes the soda in Fizz's suit to build up pressure, resulting in Fizz's armor exploding.

One of the more (but not the most) obscure puzzles in The Longest Journey requires you to bypass a police patrolman with a dry throat by purchasing a carbonated drink, taking a subway across the entire town, putting the can into an old industrial paint shaker machine, then bringing it all the way back to the policeman. The moment he opens it, the drink sprays over his Powered Armor, immediately short-circuiting it and forcing him to retreat to the precinct to get it fixed.

Tapper: Like its original Budweiser variant, the family-friendly Root Beer Tapper has a bonus game where the bartender plays a Shell Game with a bandit, using six cans of the beverage; the idea is to pick the one can the bandit did not shake to win a bonus. Choosing any one of the five cans that the bandit shakes up will invoke the trope's outcome (a beverage shower), along with the correct can highlighted.

Billy & Buddy:
In one comic, dad sends Boule and Bill to get him new bottles of beer, but realized too late he should have instructed Boule not to let Bill carry the bag with the bottles. Bill convinces Boule to let him carry the bottles home, and on the way there he does everything he can to shake them. When dad opens a bottle, the contents get sprayed into his face, much to Bill's amusement and the annoyance of Boule (who now knows why Bill was so determined to carry the bottles).
In another, dad asks Boule to get him a bottle of soda from the fridge. Boule is listing to his portable radio, and dancing along with the music all the way from the fridge to dad's room, so by the time he gets there the bottle has inadvertently been shaken to the point dad gets sprayed as soon as he opens it.
