Carbonated Beverages

Birch Beer

Birch Beer is a non-alcoholic, carbonated beverage made from birch bark and birch sap. It’s brewed, like (real) root beer is, and has a head on it when poured, so some think it’s just a type of root beer, but in fact both are a type of “small beer.” Birch Beer brands that are still…

Carbonated Beverages

Carbonated Beverages are drinks that have had carbon dioxide added to them. Carbon dioxide is colourless and flavourless. Carbonated Beverages have as their base either carbonated water or soda water – which are considered Carbonated Beverages in their own right. Usually flavour and sweetener are added.

Carbonic Acid

Carbonic Acid is simply water that has small amounts of carbon dioxide in it. It is a very weak acid. Carbon dioxide is CO2; water is H2O. When combined, the two form: CO2 + H2O = H2CO3 (aka Carbonic Acid.) Carbonic Acid gives a sharper tasting edge to drinks. It is found naturally in rainwater,…

Italian Sodas

To make Italian Sodas, you need plain fizzy water, though some people use Soda Water (aka Club Soda, the kind with bicarbonate of soda in it) and either don’t notice any appreciable taste impact, or like it. For the flavouring, you can buy the syrups at coffee shops, specialty food stores or Italian delis. Well-known…

Pop

Pop (aka soda-pop) is a fizzy, flavoured non-alcoholic soft drink sold in bottles, cans or from dispensing pumps in restaurants, fast-food places and stands, etc. A technical definition of it would be along the lines of “non-alcoholic carbonated beverage.” Often at restaurants, you’ll notice that all the kinds on offer belong to one big chain…

Soda

A soda is a sparkling beverage. In the North American sense, confusingly enough, it will be a beverage made from plain carbonated water, not “soda water.” Soda water has bicarbonate of soda (baking soda) in it, so it would affect the taste of the syrup being used to flavour the water with. In the UK,…
