What is the ideal temperature people like to drink a cold soda?

Answer 1

Obviously it will vary by person, but there are a couple of data points we can go off of. 1. Refrigerators are generally set to between 35 and 38 degrees which is the temperature at which most people will drink their soda at home.

2. The ideal beer temperature is considered to be 38 degrees, in part because a higher temperature means more carbonation is released creating a bigger head.

Because of the pressure inside the can, the freezing point is lower than if it were in a cup.

So, while anything between 32 and 40 is acceptable, ideal temperature is probably between 35 and 38.

You can chill your soda to 32 degrees by allowing it to sit in a mixture of ice and water. Want to cool it faster or farther? Add salt to the ice water. Don't make it freeze though or it will burst the can.
