Carbonated drink with carbonated water, both chilled. Carbonation levels range up to 5 volumes of CO per liquid volume. Ginger ale, colas, and related drinks are carbonated with 3.5 volumes. Other drinks, often fruity ones, are carbonated less. Carbonated drink Carbonated drinks are beverages that contain dissolved carbon dioxide. The dissolution of CO in a liquid, gives rise to "fizz" or "effervescence". The process usually involves carbon dioxide under high pressure. When the pressure is removed, the carbon dioxide is released from the solution as small bubbles, which causes the solution to become effervescent, or fizzy. A common example is the dissolving
