Do you say fizzy drink or juice?

[Marsupilamy]

My husband says juice to refer to sodas. I had only ever heard people use the word juice to refer to fruit juice.

He says it depends on where you live.

What do you say?

Juice is juice
Fizzy drinks are pop

I don't know anyone who calls it soda though so I'm guessing you're American?

You forgot council juice 😂

Fizzy or pop
Juice is pure fruit juice
Squash

It's all juice.

Diluting juice
Fizzy juice
Fruit juice

Ohh I forgot I would call a fizzy drink pop , never soda .
Did anyone else get the pop truck driving down the road when you could stop them and buy large bottles glass bottles of pop ?
Our local one was Alpine , I used to love their cream soda and neon green limeade 😛

Cooncil juice and coo juice, naw?

You must have been posh our water was corporation pop 😂

When I was little, any carbonated 😂 drink was lemonade, no matter what the flavour.
My Mother didn’t like the term Pop, so it was never called that. We lived in the North East, but parents were Southern.

Yes, this is what I heard when I first moved to Scotland 25 years ago . I asked for an orange juice and a sausage roll in a cafe and I received an orange squash and a bread roll with a square sausage 😮 in it. I was baffled but I've got the hang of it now!

Scottish and I'd say juice. If I wanted fruit juice I'd say apple juice or I'd say diluting juice for what you call "squash". Juice covers anything fizzy.

My grandparents would say ginger but it's not something I was brought up saying. I'd understand what someone meant by it though

Oh and squash was dilute juice.

Pop

I rather liked dilute juice, made of powder, but I can’t remember the name of it.

Yes I came on to say what everyone else already did. Scottish. I only realised it was weird when I left Scotland! It's basically all "juice" if it's a sweet soft drink.

Fruit juice - same as England
Fizzy juice - pop/named carbonated drink
Diluting juice - squash

I still correct myself in both directions depending on who I'm with. Feel like a twat calling diluting juice 'squash' back in Scotland but my kids do 😂

Fizzy drink is called fizzy drink, though a person I shared a house with at university said minerals.

Fruit juice, freshly squeezed or otherwise, is called juice.

Drinks you dilute, like squash is called cordial.

I say pop too (for a fizzy drink)

Midlands here .

@DeanStockwelll yes we had the pop van too. My neighbour delivered Corona pop but we had Alpine as it was cheaper and came in larger bottles.

Cremola foam?

I’d say Fizz, Fizzy or fizzy pop for things like Coke etc. Juice is squash/cordial, but it can also be fresh juice. In this instance though I’d say ‘apple juice’ or ‘orange juice’. I know it sounds mad but it seems to work. I’m in the NW but originally from the midlands.

Pop is fizzy like coke
Juice is fruit juice like fresh orange
Cordial is what you dilute with water like Robinsons

I'm from the North West

I can't really see why anyone would describe them any other different way

🙄
People are different to you. The horror...

I'm neither English or Scottish, but lived in England 19+yrs.

I call a carbonated drink as pepsi, coke, fanta etc. Never had a need to distinguish it as a fizzy/carbonated drink!

If referring to water, I'd say still or sparkling

Fruit juice is either freshly squeezed juice or juice if a shop bought version such as tropicana

Juice drink- has a far lower 'juice' content and is far more water and sugar

Juice is fruit juice
Squash is cordial - needs to be diluted with water
A fizzy drink is pop

...in my life

I'm Scottish, and it's all juice.

Fizzy juice, or diluting juice, if the need to be specific arises. No one I know ever refers to 'squash'.

I find it very weird hearing/reading 'bottle of drink'.
