No, that would be a hard drink.

Soft drinks are those described as a sweetened drink (whether it be sugar, corn syrup, or other sweeteners). It doesn't necessarily have to be carbonated, although most are.

Beer, although carbonated, has alcohol, and is no longer considered a soft drink. Non-alcoholic beverages can be considered soft drinks as well as drinks with low alcohol content as long as the content is lower than a certain percentage.
