Fizzy soft drinks contain many chemicals. One of these is citric acid - a weak acid that is naturally found in citrus fruits such as Oranges, lemons and limes. It is added to soft drinks to give a slightly sour taste, to stabilise the 'fizz' and also to serve as a preservative.

Why do fizzy drinks have acid in them?
Fizzy drinks contain acids, such as carbonic acid, to provide the tangy flavor and to enhance the carbonation process, which gives the drink its characteristic fizziness. These acids also act as preservatives to extend the shelf life of the beverage.
Does fizzy drink contain sulphuric acid?
No. "Fizzy drinks" contain carbonic acid. Some soft drinks (including some that don't "fizz", like lemonade) contain other acids (for example, many contain small amounts of citric acid, and Coca-Cola contains small amounts of phosphoric acid). However, no carbonated beverage with which I am familiar uses sulfuric acid as an actual ingredient (though it may be present in trace amounts).
