“Simple Carbohydrates”

also known as simple sugars, are molecules that consist of one or two sugar units. They are easily and quickly digested, and can be found in many foods, including fruits, honey, table sugar, and many processed foods. Examples of simple sugars include glucose, fructose, and sucrose. Simple carbohydrates provide a quick burst of energy, but because they are rapidly metabolized, they do not provide sustained energy or contribute much nutritional value. Consuming too much simple carbohydrates can lead to an increase in blood sugar levels, which can contribute to health problems like obesity, type 2 diabetes, and heart disease

“Cold drinks” in summer has only simple sugar another form of simple carbohydrate
Mostly kids are very much fond of this type of carbonated drink which only provide simple carbohydrate without any nutrition. So recommendation of cold drinks is zero by any qualified Dietitian . If any commercial says this cold drink has mango in it or oranges in it so don’t buy it. Just eat mango or oranges or banana in its original form.
