Why is carbonated juice considered "cheap" or "low class" and not just "a drink?"
Because compared to champagne (especially real stuff and not just garden-variety sparkling wine), it is cheap. That makes it "low-class" because expensive wine people like to find reasons to look down on others.
As far as I'm concerned, though, you do you and drink what you want. I don't choose beverages to impress people, I choose them because they taste good.
