What kind?
7up.
ok
This seemed weird to mean that a brand name could represent the whole spectrum of carbonated beverages.
You could also say, "Do you want a cola?"
All of these will get you some soft drink. Oh yeah, that is another term. "Soft" meaning "no alcohol".
Hobbes was brought up asking for soda.
That is pretty weird :lol:Quote:

Mmmmmmm coffee... has to be filtered, preferrably Tim Horton's. Cream is better, milk will do in extreme situations.
No, I would slowly walk away from a relationship with Iowa.Quote:

On topic, I like coffe sweets etc but don't like coffee as a drink, sorry non alcoholic non carbonated hot beverage :blink:
Iowa..where men are men, and sheep are scared.
I've been sitting here racking my brain trying to think of a UK based example of using a brand name instead of the product.Quote:
