Names for soft drinks in the United States
Names for soft drinks in the United States vary regionally. "Soda" and "pop" are the most common terms for soft drinks nationally, although other terms are used, especially "coke" (a genericized name for Coca-Cola) in the South.

Schloss gives the following years as the first attestations of the following terms for such beverages:
