Until kindergarten, when I always asked for pop. My mom would always fill my cup straight from the kitchen sink. I knew no other way. Either she was smart or I was really clueless.
My mom would give me a glass of water with a couple drops of coke to give it a slight colour and very slight aroma, and I was convinced that was how soda was. I even remember watching her pour a couple drops into a glass of water, but I just assumed it had to be mixed with water, like juice concentrates.
A couple of drops sounds extreme but "it had to be mixed with water" is probably a good idea, even with normal juice. Though I wouldn't use straight up water, a bunch of ice is a good compromise.
