What do you call carbonated drinks?

Question

Do you call it coke, pop, soda-what part off the country are you from?

Answer 1

I call it soda if i'm talking about picking up some but I usually call it by its name (i.e. I'm going to get some Dr. Pepper or Sprite) I'm from the South East Coast USA

Answer 2

I refer to any carbonated drink by its name, that is Coke is Coke, Pepsi is Pepsi, Ginger Ale is Ginger Ale. They are all "pop", the vernacular. some say soda pop. That is a generic term for any carbonated drink and therefore indicates the desire of what kind of drink, but then one must zero in on the type wanted and the kind.

Soda pop. Americans call it soda, while Canadians just call it pop. However, lets not forget about beer and sparkling wine, or as the mis-informed call it, Champagne. I call that booze, some prefer the term hooch.
