사이다 (Cider) is a popular carbonated beverage in South Korea, known for its refreshing taste. It is typically clear and has a sweet, citrus flavor, making it a favorite choice for many. The drink is often enjoyed on its own or paired with meals, especially fried foods. In South Korea, 사이다 is commonly associated with brands like Lotte and Coca-Cola, which produce their own versions. It is distinct from alcoholic cider, as it is a non-alcoholic soft drink. The beverage is often served chilled and is a staple in convenience stores and restaurants across the country.
