Question

Is it true that Sprite and Club Soda aren't technically pop/soda?

Answer 1

That's false. Why do you ask?

Answer 2

Pop, simply refers to carbonated liquid. It 'pops' with lots of bubbles.

All sodas, including Sprite and club soda, are by definition a form of soda. Soda Pop, usually refers to sweet sodas, of which there are many brands.  

Answer 3

Not exactly --

Sprite is technically a soda-pop.  

Club Soda is just carbonated water, no sugar.

Think of Sprite as flavored tonic water.  Tonic water has sugar, like Coke, Sprite, Dr. Pepper etc..

Answer 4

Sprite is lemon lime soda and Club soda is just carbonated water.
