carbonated drink

Bubbly soft refreshment

A carbonated drink is a beverage infused with carbon dioxide gas, which creates bubbles and a fizzy sensation on the tongue.

Sodas, sparkling water, and champagne are all carbonated drinks.

The term is somewhat formal—most people just say soda, pop, or fizzy drink depending on region.
