So a can filled with "air" (air from city X, as a tourist gimmick)
would be OK to bring on the plane, but a standard 7-up or sprite
depending on your religion would not be OK.

I've had an empty bottle of clear plastic confiscated in security.

To ensure traveler's security, transportation security
officers (TSOs) may determine that an item not on the
prohibited items chart is prohibited. In addition, the TSO
may also determine that an item on the permitted chart is
dangerous and therefore may not be brought through the
security checkpoint.
