Not sure if you are referring to the US meaning of soda (as in pop in the UK) or actual soda water (essentially fizzy water with sodium bicarbonate in it).

If it is the latter can I ask what this is based on? Genuinely interested, not being snarky or anything like that.

that term is not really us-specific as a whole.

Oh wow, TIL!
My intuition tells me they’re referring to pop
That was my thinking, too, but life has taught me that I am a blithering idiot who is often wrong ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
