George, Helen, and Steve are drinking coffee.
Bert, Karen, and Dave are drinking soda.
Using logic, is Elizabeth drinking coffee or soda?

Coffee.

[edited to add...]
Substituting reality for logic: Elizabeth is at home with bronchitis, taking care of her twins who have the flu and ear infections. Her car is in the shop and she can't get to the doctor, despite the 102 degree fevers. She's just pumped the moppets up with Pedialyte and Baby Tylenol and they have finally stopped screaming. So obviously Elizabeth is having a shot of JD.

Elizabeth is drinking soda. I won't spoil the riddle with telling why, though.

Nope. There's a very logical reason in the pattern of the vowels within the names.

I haven't got a clue... LOL
On closer examination, and a clue from a friend, I'm changing my answer to coffee. Elizabeth is drinking coffee. (Which sounds like a wonderful idea!) LOL

You just said a whole mouthful!
Coffee IS the correct answer.
But maybe not the best choice of beverages

Elizabeth has just come from the dentist and has informed me that her dentist said that she drinks entirely too much soda and that it is ruining her teeth, and as this make's her entirely too amped, I am switching her over to only 8 double shots of espresso / day!
