Common questions
How long does soda (carbonated cola drinks, mixers, diet sodas; bottles or cans) last in the fridge?
2–3 days after opening.
How can I tell if soda (carbonated cola drinks, mixers, diet sodas; bottles or cans) has gone bad?
Throw it out if it smells off, feels slimy or sticky, shows mold, or has changed color. Storage times assume it was handled safely and kept cold the whole time.
