carbonated beverage

A carbonated beverage is a liquid that has been infused with carbon dioxide gas under pressure, creating bubbles and a fizzy sensation when consumed. This process, called carbonation, occurs naturally in some drinks like certain mineral waters or is added artificially to sodas, sparkling waters, and energy drinks. The carbon dioxide dissolves in the liquid and forms tiny bubbles, giving the beverage its characteristic effervescence. Carbonated drinks are popular for their refreshing taste and tingling sensation, and they come in many flavors, from cola and lemon-lime to ginger ale.
