1 cup (medium) of Orange soda (240 g) has 101 calories. That works out to 42 calories per 100 g. It contains 25.4 g of carbs, 0 g of protein, 0 g of fat and 0 g of fiber. Its glycemic index is 65 (medium), so it raises blood sugar at a moderate pace.
Orange soda is a sweet, carbonated soft drink flavoured with orange. It is sold ready to drink and is distinct from orange juice, though some versions may contain juice. It is part of the wider family of fizzy fruit-flavoured drinks found in many countries.
Its bright citrus taste, sweetness and lively bubbles make it best served chilled, straight from a glass or can. It is often enjoyed with casual meals, at parties or as a refreshing drink on a warm day. Nutritionally, it mainly contributes carbohydrates; a 100 g portion has 10.6 g. If you want a less sweet pairing with food, serve a smaller glass or choose sparkling water instead.

Low
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.

Usually not; most orange soda is caffeine-free. Recipes vary by brand, though, so check the ingredients if you need to avoid caffeine, especially when choosing an unfamiliar product.
Not necessarily. Many orange sodas get their orange taste from flavoring, while some contain a small amount of juice. Check the ingredients list rather than assuming the drink is made from oranges.
Orange soda is not a good everyday drink because it is sweetened and provides little beyond fluid and flavor. Water is a better choice for regular hydration; keep orange soda as an occasional treat.
Frequent sipping can contribute to tooth decay because orange soda is often sugary, and its acidity can also affect enamel. Having it occasionally with a meal is better than sipping it throughout the day.
No. Orange soda is a sweet, carbonated soft drink, while orange juice is made from oranges and is not carbonated. Orange flavor in a soda does not mean it contains a meaningful amount of fruit juice.
Orange soda can raise blood glucose because it commonly contains sugar. Whether it fits your meal plan depends on your individual needs and medication, so ask your doctor or dietitian if you are unsure.
Keep orange soda tightly closed in the refrigerator after opening. It may remain safe for a while, but it gradually loses carbonation and flavor, so it tastes best soon after you open it.
It is not a good idea. The liquid expands as it freezes, which can split or burst a sealed bottle or can. Chill orange soda in the refrigerator instead, and do not leave it unattended in the freezer.
It provides fluid, but it is not the best everyday hydration choice because it is usually sweetened. Choose water when you are thirsty, and treat orange soda as an occasional drink rather than a replacement for water.
The bubbles come from dissolved carbon dioxide escaping as the soda is poured. Pouring it slowly down the side of a clean glass usually creates less foam than pouring it quickly into the center.
