When talking about beverages in Chinese, you'll commonly use the word 饮料 (yǐn liào). This is a very general term, similar to how we use "beverage" or "drink" in English.
You can use it for almost any kind of liquid you consume, like water, soda, juice, or even alcoholic drinks. For example, if you're in a restaurant and want to ask for a drink, you could simply say "有什么饮料？" (Yǒu shénme yǐnliào? - What drinks do you have?).
It's a foundational word to know when ordering food or talking about refreshments. While there are more specific words for different types of drinks, 饮料 is your go-to for the general concept.
