I think soda and pop (and especially that "soda pop" thing some people say--WTF?) are pretty ridiculous, as well. "Soft drink" is probably the least silly-sounding and least easily-mistaken-for-something else ("soda" makes me think club soda or soda water, which isn't a flored thing at all) term for it if you don't use the actual name of the drink.
