An Italian soda is a soft drink made from carbonated water and flavored syrup.[1] Flavors can be fruit (e.g. cherry, blueberry) or modeled after the flavors of desserts, spices, or other beverages (e.g. amaretto, chai, chocolate).[2] Some vendors add cream to the drink as well, which is often then known as a French soda[3] or an Italian cream soda.
Despite its name, Italian soda originated in the United States.
