Why an ice cube floats in a glass of soft drink?

Ice cubes float in soft drinks, or any liquid, because ice is less dense than the liquid it displaces. This is due to the molecular structure of ice, which causes it to have a lower density than liquid water. As a result, ice cubes will float instead of sink in a glass of soft drink.
