carbon dioxide is moderately soluble in cold water but is completely boiled out if the water is boiled.Solubility increases rapidly with pressure. How is the above phenomenon used in the production of aerated drinks?

Soft drinks are pressurized (to make gas more soluble) and cooled (to make gas more soluble). If you pop the top of a cola and leave it open to the air it will go flat in a short time since all of the dissolved CO2 will be gone.
