Drinks - South Carolina
I have a funny story to go with this one
I drove to California last March to help my aunt move there, and our first night in California we stayed in a La Quinta Inn in Bakersfield. We got up to the hotel room and decided to order from a delivery service that goes and gets food from different restaurants and then bring it to you. We called and ordered a pizza and asked what kinds of "drinks" they have. The person on the phone was like "what" so I repeated and they repeated - and I was like "you know what do you have to drink" then my aunt who was overhearing my conversation said say pop or soda - so I said soda and they finally started listing off "drinks" that they had - she later explained that when someone out there says "drinks" they are usually talking about alcoholic drinks
just a bunch of drunk southerners

Funny question...I'm from NC and all carbonated drinks are called coke. An example, "What do you want to drink?" "Give me a coke." "What flavor?" "Pepsi." Soda is fairly common here also but never, ever call it a pop in the south. "Pop" will get immediately identified as a midwesterner.

I call it soda pop by using fact my grand dad instructed me how they made their own handmade "soda" approximately seventy 5 years in the past. The have been adverse so ought to no longer purchase any genuine sodas. They made their own by making use of putting candy fruit juice in previous soda bottles. Then they could upload in simple terms slightly of baking soda and at as quickly as cork the bottles tightly. The baking soda could react with the easy acids in the fruit juice and convey carbon dioxide which became trapped in the corked bottle. that ought to carbonate the drink and whilst they opened the bottles various hours later they could have fizzy handmade soda pop, (in the event that they put in too lots soda the corks could come out! ... subsequently, soda pop or in simple terms pop.)

I call it soda, Massachusetts. Some will call it "soder" here too. My aunt says tonic and I can't stand it. Pop sounds too corny. I live in Georgia now and my friend from Tennessee calls any soda a "cold drink". LOL.

Soda or Cola. I don't care what other Texans say, I never go to a restaurant and have someone say, "What kind of coke would you like?", it's more along the lines of "Would you like to start out with an iced tea or Dr. Pepper?". Psh. Previous Texans saying "Coke".
