carbonated
Infused with bubbles
Carbonated describes a liquid infused with carbon dioxide gas, creating effervescence—the fizz in soft drinks, sparkling water, and beer.
The dissolved gas produces bubbles that rise and pop at the surface: I prefer carbonated water to still.
Carbonation adds a slight acidity and tingling sensation on the tongue.
