Soft drink

A soft drink is a drink that contains no (or very little) alcohol.

Some famous soft drinks are:

• Coca Cola
• [Dansk Citronvand]? (Denmark: carbonated lemonade)
• Irn Bru (Scotland)
• Julmust (Sweden, similar to Coca Cola)
• [Mountain Dew]?
• Pepsi
• [Root beer]?
• Sockerdricka (Sweden)
• Sprite?
• Svagdricka? (Sweden, similar to root beer)
• [Red Bull]? (Austria, UK, Australia) isn't Red Bull available just about everywhere???
• Almdudler? (Austria, called a lemonade but made with cabbageand flowers)

Help me: Are all soft drinks carbonated?, or does lemonade? count as a soft drink as well?

In America, soft drink denotes a carbonated drink, regionaly known in the North as "pop", in the South as "soda", in between as "soda pop", and in Atlanta as "coke". In German, soft drinks are known as limo, the German word for lemonade but in America lemonade is just a beverage, not a soft drink.

Yeah, Swedish "lemonad" means carbonated soft drink, and the Swedish word for American lemonade is "lemon drink" or "lemon water" (citronvatten, citrondricka). --LA2

In Australia, 'soft drink' is always carbonated in my experience. 'Lemonade' can refer to 'lemon drink', but most of the time means clear softdrink (i.e. Sprite, Mountain Dew, etc.) -- SJK
