    Italian Soda

    An Italian Soda is a flavored carbonated drink, typically made with a flavouring syrup component and an unflavored carbonated component.

    Italian Sodas can be purchased pre-mixed from grocery stores, though the quality isn't usually great. The most popular way to enjoy an italian soda is to buy the components and made it yourself at home, which is as simple and mixing the ingredients together in a glass.
