Etymology

The term 'carbonated' originates from the word 'carbonate,' which in turn comes from the Latin word 'carbo' meaning coal or charcoal. The process of carbonating beverages was first developed in the late 18th century by chemists experimenting with adding carbon dioxide to liquids. This led to the creation of carbonated water, the basis for many popular carbonated drinks we enjoy today.
