I could've gone back to 'snow' as people seem to like lying down and moving their arms and legs to make snow angels :).

I don't understand what snow has to do with drift. Can someone explain me what a drift is in weather?

A snowdrift is a bank of deep snow created by the wind. Google Translate says that the Dutch word is 'sneeuwbank'.

(as in Canada Dry soft drinks)

There's a story about Irish poet, writer, novelist and heavy drinker Brendan Behan's visit to Canada. He was apparently asked by a reporter "What brings you to Canada, Mr Behan?" To which Behan is supposed to have replied "Well now, I was in a bar in Dublin and it had one of those coasters, and it said "Drink Canada Dry", so I thought I'd give it a shot." :)
