In Scotland all sweet soft drinks are often referred to as Juice or Ginger even if they don't have juice or ginger in them.

As in carbonated drinks? You might order orange juice and get Fanta!

I think that might be stranger than using Coke for all carbonated drinks. Is that usage more prevalent with older people or all ages?
