Why does coke make you thirsty?

Really good question: Test it out. Try heavily carbonated water (seltzer) and see if that makes you thirsty and see if either highly sugared beverages do (a shot glass of maple syrup) or sour stuff lemon in water. The answer is that a bit of a combination. Mostly, the carbonation (which is SODIUM bicarbinate after all) and a bit of the others.
