Carbonated
water, club soda, soda water, or sparkling water is water that is carbonated and made efervesen
by the addition of carbon dioxide gas under pressure. Soda water gets its name
from the sodium salt it contains says 'salty' compounds, adding different
qualities to a number of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages.
Soda water is also a raw
material for long drinks and cocktails. Soda water can also be directly drunk.
In 1767, Joseph Priestley of
England invented the method of incorporating carbon dioxide into the water
while hanging a bowl of water over a keg of beer at a brewery in Leeds,
England.
The air that envelopes the
fermented beer which it calls the fixed water is known to kill the mice hanging
there. Priestley later learned that carbonated water had a good taste. The
water was served to his friends as a refreshing drink.
In 1772, Priestley published
a paper entitled "Impregnating Water with Fixed Air" containing an
explanation of the method of dripping "oil of vitriol" (sulfuric
acid) onto lime to produce carbon dioxide gas, and mixing the gas into a bowl
of water.
