Because it contains acidsm which most likely are citric acids (depends on the flavour). All acids are souring tasting, thus since it has a high amount of acid in it, then it tastes sour. It doesn't however taste as sour as a lemon or a lime for example because there is also a decent amount of sugar in there, whether they are natural or synthetic.

Does eating sweet foods affect the taste of eating less sweet foods after that?
Yes. A normally pleasant sour or bitter food can taste unpleasantly sour or bitter if taken after a mouthful of very sweet food. For example, an apple might taste sour if bitten into after one eats a piece of very sweet candy. The practice of "cleansing the palate" developed for this reason. Sometimes a small dish of tangy sherbet is served between the courses of a large meal, or a starchy cracker is eaten between sips of different wines.
