I realise that yes, this is very political. I may be crossing a line here.

They're just called fizzy water, or dizzy drinks here. Although the shops call them 'sparkling'

So.. coke is a sparkling drink? Gotta say that sounds weird to me. Which country is this?

UK. Although they don't usually specify 'sparkling' in the shop if it's a brand name thing like Coca Cola or Ribena or Appletiser or whatever
