The capsule includes a lower cap with a security strip which inserts removably on a mouth of a bottle. The upper part of the lower cap is open and provided with a neck which couples with an upper cap, also having a security strip. A reservoir is provided within the upper cap and has a breakable bottom; the reservoir also internally includes a cutter. The upper cap can move axially downwards with respect to the neck and the bottle, while it is prevented from moving upwards. The capsule also includes an anchoring between the reservoir and the neck of the capsule when the reservoir is inserted in the neck. The process includes filling the bottle with fizzy water, hermetically closing the bottle with a capsule containing substances to be added to the fizzy water, and introducing the substances into the fizzy water before consuming the drink.

The invention claimed is: 1. A capsule containing a mixer substance for bottles containing pressurized liquids, comprising a lower cap (4) provided with a first security strip (12) and also provided with means for connecting which enable a removable insertion of the capsule onto a mouth (2) of a bottle (1), wherein: the means for connecting comprises a screw-coupling between the lower cap (4) and the mouth (2) of the bottle; an upper part of the lower cap (4) is open externalwise and is provided with a neck (4a) externally of which an upper cap (5) couples with freedom to displace in an axial direction, which upper cap (5) is provided with a second security strip (13); the lower cap (4) comprises an internal annular hoop (18), made internally of the lower cap (4) below the neck (4a), and destined to insert sealingly internally of the mouth (2) of the bottle when the lower cap (4) is inserted on the bottle; a reservoir (8) being provided internally of the upper cap (5), having a bottom (8a) which is breakable, and a cutter (9) being located internally of the upper cap (5), which reservoir (8) is inserted solidly and sealingly in the neck (4a) of the lower cap (4); a substance being contained internally of the reservoir (8) which substance is to be inserted into the bottle when the bottom (8a) of the reservoir (8) is broken; the capsule (3) comprising means for coupling to enable an axial movement of the upper cap (5) with respect to the neck (4a) and in a downwards direction with respect to the bottle; the means for coupling prevent a rising axial movement of the upper cap (5) with respect to the neck (4a); means for hooking being provided to realize a solid anchoring between the reservoir (8) and the neck (4a) of the lower capsule (4) when the reservoir (8) is inserted on the neck (4a). 2. A capsule containing a mixer substance for bottles containing pressurized liquids, comprising: a lower cap (4) provided with a first security strip (12) and also provided with means for connecting which enable a removable insertion of the capsule onto a mouth (2) of a bottle (1), the means for connecting comprising a screw-coupling between the lower cap (4) and the mouth (2) of the bottle, an upper part of the lower cap (4) being open externalwise and provided with a neck (4a); an upper cap (5) that couples externally of the neck (4a) with freedom to displace in an axial direction, the upper cap (5) being provided with a second security strip (13); the lower cap (4) further comprising an internal annular hoop (18), made internally of the lower cap (4) below the neck (4a), and constructed so as to insert sealingly internally of the mouth (2) of the bottle when the lower cap (4) is inserted on the bottle; a reservoir (8) provided internally of the upper cap (5), to internally contain a substance in the reservoir (8), said substance to be inserted into the bottle when the reservoir (8) is broken; wherein the capsule (3) comprises means for coupling to enable an axial movement of the upper cap (5) with respect to the neck (4a) in a downwards direction with respect to the bottle; wherein said means for coupling prevents a rising axial movement of the upper cap (5) with respect to the neck (4a) and comprises an external thread (10) arranged on an external part of the neck (4a) that screw-couples with an internal thread (11) arranged internally of the upper cap (5); wherein the reservoir includes a bottom (8a) that is breakable; wherein the upper cap (5) further comprises a cutter (9) located internally of the upper cap (5); wherein the reservoir (8) is inserted solidly and sealingly in the neck (4a) of the lower cap (4); the capsule further comprising: an external ring (16), solidly constrained to the reservoir (8) and arranged on an external upper part thereof, a section of which has a downwards-facing hook-shape; a first internal annular projection (17), arranged on an internal surface of the upper cap (5) in proximity of an internal bottom of the upper cap (5) so as to insert below the external ring (16) following a first downwards translation of the upper cap (5) with respect to the neck (4a) of the lower cap (4); means for hooking being provided to realize a solid anchoring between the reservoir (8) and the neck (4a) of the lower cap (4) when the reservoir (8) is inserted on the neck (4a), wherein said means for hooking comprises a second internal annular projection (14), arranged internally of the neck (4a) of the lower cap (4), below which an external annular projection (15) inserts, which external annular projection (15) is arranged on an external surface of the reservoir (8) when the reservoir (8) is inserted on the neck (4a). 3. The capsule of claim 2, wherein: the neck (4a) of the lower cap (4) has an internal diameter which is smaller than an internal diameter of the mouth (2) of the bottle. 4. A bottle on which the capsule (3) of claim 3 is inserted, having a capacity of between 0.20 and 2 liters. 5. A process for producing fizzy drinks, comprising the following stages: filling a bottle with fizzy water under pressure; hermetic closure of the bottle by a capsule as described in claim 2 containing substances to be added to the water for obtaining a drink; introduction of the substances into the water, obtained by causing an exit of the substances without opening the bottle, immediately before consumption of the drink by a consumer. 6. The process of claim 5, wherein the bottle containing the fizzy water has a capacity of between 0.20 and 2 liters. 7. A process for producing fizzy drinks, comprising the following stages: filling a bottle with fizzy water under pressure; hermetic closure of the bottle by a capsule as described in claim 3 containing substances to be added to the water for obtaining a drink; introduction of the substances into the water, obtained by causing an exit of the substances without opening the bottle, immediately before consumption of the drink by a consumer. 8. The process of claim 7, wherein the bottle containing the fizzy water has a capacity of between 0.20 and 2 liters.
