Pronunciation: [ʃˈʊɡəɹi dɹˈɪŋk tˈaks] (IPA) 
A sugary drink tax is a levy applied to beverages that are high in sugar content. As public health concerns about obesity and diabetes grow, more countries and cities are implementing this tax to discourage people from consuming sugary drinks. Some synonyms for this tax include soda tax, fizzy drink duty, sweetened beverage levy, and sugar-sweetened drink tax. The purpose of this tax is to not only generate revenue for the government but also to promote healthier drinking habits. By increasing the price of sugary drinks, consumers are more likely to choose healthier options like water or unsweetened beverages.
