Default Refeeds, drinks and sugar content (Or is that fructose?)

Today is the day I decide whether to go on my first refeed. I have been stalled for 4 weeks and doing a fair bit of intense running, swimming etc. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know it is 50/50 from forum readers out there whether this will break a stall or do nothing but set me back. Regardless, this question is more to do with the contents of what we in Australia call "Soft Drink", e.g. Coke, Sprite etc.

I understand in the US most soft drink contains fructose (Which I would want to avoid on a refeed) instead of sugar. I have not checked the label here yet for Coke, but I just picked up another brand of Soft Drink called "Solo" and it says:

Carbonated Water
Sugar
Reconstituted Lemon Juice
Food Acids
Flavour
Preservative
Colour

31g carbs, 30g sugar.

Is there any chance that the label "Sugar" could mean anything other than sugar, e.g. fructose?

High sugar foods are refeed material right?
