I think part of what would irritate me here is not just that they've taken away free soda, but they're now actively charging me for it. I wonder if it would've come across better if there just wasn't any soda offered in the office anymore. Maybe it's totally illogical, but I'd be more irritated with the idea that the company not only took away this perk, but is now trying to make a profit off of it.

No, that (removing soda as an option) wouldn't go over well at all. Forget the idea of being offended, the practical matter is that soda is no longer an option... or at least a convenient option. You may as well take away the coffee as see how that goes over.
