Our choices of soft drinks seem to grow almost
daily, with new avors or twists on old avors.
This month we take a look back at how it all be-gan. Let’s see how much you remember from youryouth.
•The name “SODA” was coined in the early
nineteenth century, but the product’s true begin-nings go back several centuries to biblical timeswhen bubbling waters from natural springs were amuch sought after delight.
