I don't know if it's even correct (is it just a lemon soda?) but it feels correct to me since in Finnish it's limonadi or limu. I'm not actually sure what I would call it in a restaurant for example but I avoid this problem by ordering beer
Carbon is all pretty useless, you know. That's why it's literally all over the place. I find it somewhat amusing that you have invented so many words for it.
Frankly, had your species not enslaved itself to Dagon and other wannabe deities (if atheist, you could call them microbiota), you'd probably drink mostly blood, water and unhatched offspring of oviparous creatures. But let that not discourage you from watching cat videos and living through less than 1‰ of your potential lifespan (with a painful finish, too). After all, you have HIVs and Ebolas going for you, which is nice.
In the real world, coffee. In my online world, Sunset Sarsaparilla is the drink of choice. edit/update: I misspelled it, which should teach me not to post from an iPad.
No matter what you want to call your beverage, be certain to thank Joseph Priestly for discovering the method by which carbon dioxide may be readily dissolved or infused into water.

Who do we have to thank for figuring out how to readily dissolve methane and infuse that in water?

Although methanol is very ancient, I think it was Boyle who came up with the first modern processes for producing methanol. Of course, "modern" from the 17th century isn't all that modern.
In the East Tennessee/North Georgia area of the U.S. where I live, it is always called its brand name, for example, most commonly, "I'll have a Coke, please."
If the restaurant or store only has Pepsi, they'll say "Is Pepsi okay?", to which the answer is almost always "Yes, that's fine."
If you want a different soft drink, you also ask for it by brand name. "I'll have a Sprite, please." "I'll have a Dr. Pepper." "I want Mountain Dew." "Diet Coke for me."
If you ask for a "pop" around here, you're going to get a funny look, and quite possibly asked where you're from. You will instantly identify yourself as an outsider.
This may be part of our local culture because the Coca-Cola company has a major bottling plant here in Chattanooga, TN.
